[Verse 1] On my own I've been falling to the pressure There's a weight That's been heavy on my shoulders I need You to lift me up I'm so tired I'm trying to make up new excuses Faking smiles Trying to hide I'm only human I need You to lift me up 'cause on my own is not enough [Chorus] Every time You speak out And say the words I need to hear Every time You reach out I can feel His love so near I hope you know For me you are the hands of God [Verse 2] I don't doubt God is with me in the valley But I believe He gave me you to remind me The face of love and answered prayer (Answered prayer) The hands of God with me right here [Chorus] Every time You speak out And say the words I need to hear Every time you reach out I can feel His love so near I hope you know To me you are the hands of God [Bridge] Every time You listen to me 'cause You know I need a friend Every time you stop what you're doing Help me find my way again I hope you know To me you are the hands of God [Verse 3] You are the hand upon my shoulder When I'm hurting You are the voice of truth and love When I am searching For every time you reach To help me in my knees One day Jesus will say "you did it for Me" [Chorus] Every time you speak out And say the words I need to hear Every time You reach out I can feel His love so near I hope you know To me you are (to me You are) The hands of God [Outro] Every time you listen to me 'cause You know I need a friend Every time you stop what you're doing Help me find my way again I hope you know (I hope you know) To me you are (to me you are) The hands of God
