Song Lyrics

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the waters
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself, then you can look at others differently
Put your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee

Every time I look in the Holy Book I wanna tremble
When I read the part where a carpenter cleared the temple
For the buyers and the sellers were no different fellers
Than what I profess to be
And it causes me to shame to know I'm not the man I should be

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the waters
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself, then you can look at others differently
Put your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee

Mama taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven
And when I'm down on my knees that's when I'm close to heaven
Daddy lived his life, two kids and wife, you do what you must do
He showed me enough of what it takes just to get me through

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the waters
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself, then you can look at others differently
Put your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee
