Hands

Jewel


If I could tell the world just one thing

It would be that we're all OK

And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful

And useless in times like these

I won't be made useless

I won't be idle with despair

I will gather myself around my faith

For light does the darkness most fear


My hands are small, I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken


Poverty stole your golden shoes

But it didn't steal your laughter

And heartache came to visit me

But I knew it wasn't ever after


We'll fight, not out of spite

For someone must stand up for what's right

'Cause where there's a man who has no voice

There ours shall go singing


My hands are small, I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken


In the end only kindness matters

In the end only kindness matters


I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

My hands are small, I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken


We are God's eyes, God's hands, God's mind

We are God's eyes, God's hands, God's heart

We are God's eyes, God's hands, God's eyes

We are God's hands

We are God's hands
