Your hands will hold me, Lord,
Yes, Your hands will hold me.
You are my Father, my Mother, my Friend;
You are my Comforter here on earth.
1.
Whenever I go through seasons of deep pain,
You use them to test and strengthen my faith in You.
To fill my heart with divine comfort,
You prepare the way for me
Through all these things, day by day.
2.
The more sickness and troubles increase,
And the heavier the burdens of life become,
The more You draw me, my Beloved Lord,
To lose myself in Your love.
You prepare me for this
Day after day.
3.
Even when anxiety and distress fill my heart
And my mind burns with sorrow,
You use these moments to melt and refine me,
So that Your image may shine brightly within me.
You prepare this refining process for me
Day after day.
4.
Even when sickness causes my body to suffer,
And anxiety causes my heart to tremble,
With the eyes of faith, I see ahead
The glorious resurrection body
And my heavenly home.
Even while I live here on this earth,
I look forward to that day.
