"Your Weak Hands" lyrics

"Your Weak Hands"

You held my hand
Led me to the water
You pushed me in
I went under

They were your firm hands
That made me falter

You held my hand
Led me to the altar
You wept for me
Lord, absolve her

They were your weak hands
That made me stronger

You held my hand
And led me homeward
I looked for you
You were nowhere

Holding tight my hand
Was my own
