Put your hand in the hand of the man |
|
Who stilled the water . . . |
|
Put your hand in the hand of the man |
|
Who calmed the sea . . . |
|
Take a look at yourself, |
|
And you can look at others differently, |
|
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man |
|
From the Galilee! |
|
Every time I look into the holy book |
|
I want to tremble . . . |
|
When I read about the part where the carpenter |
|
Cleared the temple . . . |
|
For the buyers and the sellers were no different fellas |
|
Than what I profess to be, |
|
And it causes me shame to know |
|
I'm not the guy that I should be! |

|
Mamma taught me how to pray |
|
Before I reached the age of seven . . . |
|
She said: There'll come a time when we'll probably need a room |
|
In heaven! |
|
And I'm feeling kinda guilty 'bout the number of times |
|
To do what we must do, |
|
But we forget what he said when we figured that |
|
He'd still make room! |
