              Chorus: 
         G                                           D7  
Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water; 
         Am                      D                  G 
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea. 
       Dm                   G               C                
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently, 
                G           E7          A7       D7  G  (C  G  D) 
By putting your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee. 
 
Verse 1: 
Every Time I look into the holy book I wanna tremble 
When I read about the part where the carpenter cleared the temple 
For the buyers and the sellers were no different fellers than what I profess to be, 
And it causes me shame to know I'm not the gal that I should be. 
 
CHORUS 
 
Verse 2: 
Momma taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven, 
When I'm down on my knees, that's when I'm close to heaven. 
Daddy lived his life with two kids and a wife; you do what you must do 
But he showed me enough of what it takes to get you through. 
 
CHORUS
