Your Hands

Your Hands ~ JJ Heller

I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn't there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away

I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

Your hands
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when...

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave...
I never leave Your hands


It would be a lie to say I haven't cried, but I am filled with hope, none-the-less. When I drove away, trying to hold the tears, I turned the radio on as a distraction. As if it was cued up and poised for exactly that moment, the first notes and words I heard were these, "When my heart is breaking...I never leave Your hands". Go, and be all that you were made to be, and thank you so much for sharing your life, and the lives of your children with us so freely. We all love you so very much!
