In the Hands of God

We have raised our hopes and our cities high,
We have followed fragile dreams,
But only One could take the measure of our goals.
And we've stumbled over the trials of life,
And we've wrestled the unseen,
But only One could calm the storm inside our souls.
In the hands of God we will fall,
Rest for the restless
and the weary,
Hope for the sinner.
In the hands of God we stand tall;
hands that are mighty
to deliver
Giving us freedom.
When our strength gave way to the weight of guilt
Till we strained for every breath
Only One could life our shame and make us well.
And when all is finished and we face
the fearsome power of Death,
Only One has overcome the gates of Hell.
In the hands of God we will fall,
Rest for the restless
and the weary,
Hope for the sinner.
In the hands of God we stand tall;
hands that are mighty
to deliver
Giving us freedom.
Oh, You're amazing!
You're amazing, You are!
And we praise You
Lord, for what Your hands have done.
Oh, You're amazing!
You're amazing, You are!

In the hands of God we will fall,
Rest for the restlessand the weary,
Hope for the sinner.
In the hands of God we stand tall;
hands that are mighty
to deliver
Giving us freedom.
