JJ Heller – Your Hands Lyrics

JJ Heller · Painted Red

Pop

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
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
Yeah, 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

One of the best Contemporary Christian artists and this song is simple and beautiful. I attended a very small concert a couple of years ago that I was apart of putting together. She and her husband did this song and many others, they are a brilliant team. JJ Heller is very grounded, sweet and personable.

Such a beautiful song. Every time I hear this song, I choke up or get teary eyed. And I must have heard this song over 20 times. Such a simple but meaningful song that reminds us to stay strong and continue to seek the Lord when things are tough. Also to remember this world is only temporary and God has a wonderful place he is preparing for us!

This Easter Sunday will be the second Sunday since the unexpected death of my husband, my dear, sweet husband. This song speaks directly to me.
