In Your Hands

(Written in July of 2008)

As sleep relieved me of the day,

to an high mountain I was carried away.

The Spirit was to be my guide this night

and my Father's house was within my sight.

I entered in at the gate;

the steps before, began with faith.

Lead me by the way.

Walk with me each day.

Help me understand-

I'm in your hands.

The Savior met me at the door,

and I could hold my tears no more.

Wonder pierced my memory-

had I become all He asked me to be?

My heart cried out:

Lord, save me from my doubt!

Lead me by the way.

Walk with me each day.

Help me understand- 

I'm in your hands.

Have I served with a heart sincere?

Am I worthy to be standing here?

Did I let you down with life was tough?

Lord, did I give enough?

Lead me by the way.

Walk with me each day.

Help me understand-

I'm in your hands.

As I knelt with fear and trembling,

I felt His hands so soft and loving.

He took me in, and held me close;

'Child you already know...

Every hand you held 

and with each tear that fell,

Thou hast served me well'.

Lead me by the way.

Walk with me each day.

Help me understand-

I'm in your hands.
