Put Your Hand in the Hand
Put Your Hand in the Hand
by Loretta Lynn
GD7
Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the waters
AmD7G
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
G7C
Take a look at yourself and you can look at the others differently
GE7A7D7G
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man from Gal-ilee
D7
Every time I look into the Holy Book I wanna tremble
AmD7G
When I read about the part where a carpenter cleared the temple
G7C
For the buyers and the sellers were no different fellers than what I profess to be
GE7A7D7G
And it causes me shame to know I'm not the gal that I should be
D7
Mama taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven
AmD7G
And when I'm down on my knees that's when I'm close to heaven
G7C
Daddy lived his life for eight kids and wife you do what you must do
GE7A7D7G
But he showed me enough of what it takes to get you through
