Put Your Hand In The Hand - Joan Baez

Chorus:

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water;

Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea.

Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently,

By putting your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee.

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:

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water;

Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea.

Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently,

By putting your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee.

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:

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water;

Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea.

Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently,

By putting your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee…
