Leave It In The Hands Of Love - Fontella Bass

I still remember When I heard you call me by name I'd follow You anywhere Knew I could trust You with anything But, now, sorrow beats down on me Waiting for You to come through I'm all alone with my questions I'm dry and cracked open, I thirst for You And as I fall apart Come flood this desert heart Fall like the rain, living water And I know Your way is best Lord, help me find my rest And I'll be the clay in the hands of the potter My world is spinning My life seems so out of control Nailed scarred hands tell the story Of love that will never let go of me Through the sunshine or rain I know where my hope is found What You started in me I know You will complete from the inside out And as I fall apart Come flood this desert heart Fall like the rain, living water And I know Your way is best Lord, help me find my rest And I'll be the clay in the hands of the potter My world is breaking me Your love is shaping me And now the enemy is afraid of what You're making me My world is breaking me Your love is shaping me And now the enemy is afraid of what You're making me My world is breaking me Your love is shaping me And now the enemy is afraid of what You're making me And as I fall apart Come flood this desert heart Fall like the rain, living water And I know Your way is best Lord, help me find my rest And I'll be the clay in the hands of the potter And I'll be the clay in the hands of the potter

Well I could have been sick I could have died I could have given up And not tried To make it to tomorrow Like a brokenhearted lover But there was a brand new start And suddenly I was taken New and faraway places And the music I was shaken It was a whole new race When I woke on that first day There was nothing I could say I was in the hands of angels Johnny and the governor Came and brought me to my senses They made me feel just like a king Made me lose all my bad defenses And they knew all the places I needed to go All of the people I needed to know They knew who I needed And who needed me And who would come help me And who would just let me be I was in the hands of angels Until this very day Inside the hands of angels What more can I say When you're in the hands of angels Life is oh so sweet And you feel the love Down deep inside Even out there on the street In the hands of angels

Baby I'll be your soldier Gladly I'll do your bidding For just a taste of what you're holding For just a taste you could own me Me Save your sermons for someone that's afraid to love I'll be right here lying in the hands of God Here it comes diving into me Now the floor is the ceiling If you never flew why would you Cut the wings off a butterfly? Fly Save your sermons for someone that's afraid to love If you knew what I feel then you couldn't be so sure I'll be right here lying in the hands of God If you feel angels in your head Teardrop of joy runs down your face You will rise Fillin' me up now drain me Skin begins to grow back slowly Faster until I'm choking I really should call my mother Mother Save your sermons for someone that's afraid to love If you knew what I feel then you couldn't be so sure I'll be right here lying in the hands of God I am in love with nothing else Teardrop of joy runs off my face I will rise for someone that's afraid to love If you knew what I feel then you couldn't be so sure I'll be right here lying in the hands of God Now the floor is the ceiling If you never flew why would you If you never flew why would you You Why would you
