"The Hands" lyrics

"The Hands"
(from "The Inspection" soundtrack)

No one told me
Flight's promise might be fragile
And that's okay
Hey, look at the hands that held me today
Bless the hands that held me today

No one told me
The best meals don't come from home
And that's okay
Hey, look at the hands that fed me today
Bless the hands that wiped the tears from my face

Those hands
Those hands
Those hands
Those hands

No one told me
I would be the last thing I love
But that's okay
Hey, look at the path, look at the path you pave
Bless me for the life I've made

You know you shape me with those
Those hands
You shape my heart, you shape my mind with those
Those hands
Oh, you're so good, so good, so good
Those hands
I know you'd fight for me
Those hands
You pull weeds from my garden with
Those hands
Could not have made it this far without you and those
Those hands
Gave me water when I was thirsty
Those hands
Kept me safe when folks tried to hurt me
Those hands
So good to me with those
Those hands
So much life because of those
Those hands
You cleaned me when I was dirty
Those hands
So, so, so soft and gentle
Those hands

Now, the whole world is in my hands
Yes, I'll take your things into my hands
The greatest weapon I know is our hands
The best gift I can offer is my hands

I get to hold what we build with our
Our hands
Oh the battles we won with our
Our hands
We carry our purpose with our hands
Our hands
And we carry our lovers with our
Our hands
Got no room for shame in our
Our hands
Forgive the folks too scared to hold
Our hands
Everyone knows the strength of our
Our hands
Now everyone knows the strength of our
Our hands

Our hands
Our hands
Our hands
Our hands

Now, the whole world is in our hands
Now, the whole world is in our hands

Our hands
