| Of the man who stilled the water
|
| Put your hand in the hand
|
| Of the man who calmed the sea.
|

| When I read about the part
|
| Where a carpenter cleared the temple;
|
| For the buyers and the sellers were
|
| No diff’rent fellas than what I profess to be
|
| And it causes me shame to know I’m not the gal
|
| That I should be.
|
| Put your hand in the hand…
|
| Mama taught me how to pray before
|
| I reached the age of seven
|
| And when I’m down on my knees that’s a
|
| When I’m close to heaven;
|
| Dady lived his life with two kids and a wife;
|
| You do must you must do
|
| But he showed me
|
| Enough of what it takes to get you through. |
