By His Hands

This song is a compilation of what we originally thought were 2 songs, because David was feeling led to write at the same time as me.  Singing them at the same time didn't make sense, and so we started writing two separate songs.  It wasn't coming together, until we decided to again sing together in the same song.  Within an hour the rest of the song was written.  The next day we added the scripture verse and began laying down the tracks.

The song is about not forgetting the Power of our God, how He formed us, and what Jesus gave us. For those who've never accepted His call, recognize His gift. Just the like the thief that died on the cross next to Him.  That man's time was up.  He made the choice to accept Christ in those final moments, and there was Jesus, nails in his hands and feet, suffering the worst death known to man.... and He was encouraging the sinner.  Bringing the light.  Saving him.  Talking about paradise.  How beautiful is His love for us, that even while we were killing Him, Jesus was lifting us up?

Here are the Lyrics:

the One who pushed the mountains up

the One who filled the sea

the same hands that molded you

were nailed on Calvary.

do you think the things you've done

you think they're bigger than the Son?

He paid for every sin

and every sin there's been since then!

By His hands we're saved

He left the grave

so you and I would live forever.

Sent your only Son

to die for us.

To Your name be the Glory.

whoever calls on the name

of the Lord shall be saved

just like the man who sinned

hangin' on the cross next to Him,

with his arms stretched open wide,

talking about paradise

with the one and only Jesus Christ.

we've all sinned and fall short of

The Glory of God Above

There is not one of us

Righteous enough.

He stands at the door and knocks

do you hear His voice

break the chains, break the locks

You gotta make your choice

By His hands we're saved

He left the grave

so you and I would live forever.

Sent His only Son

to die for us.

To Your name be the Glory.

Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name. (Joh 20:30-31)

whoever calls on the name

of the Lord shall be saved

just like the man who sinned

hangin' on the cross next to Him,

with his arms stretched wide,

talking about paradise

with the one and only Jesus Christ.

    

the One who pushed the mountains up

the One who filled the sea

the hands they nailed on Calvary.....

molded you and me.
