Natalie Grant Album: Relentless Track: In Better Hands
In Better Hands Lyrics
It's hard to stand On shifting sand It's hard to shine In the shadows of the night You can't be free If you don't reach for help And you can't love If you don't love yourself But there is hope when my faith runs out... Cuz I'm in better hands now
Chorus: It's like the sun is shining When the rain is pourin' down It's like my soul is flying Though my feet are on the ground So take this heart of mine There's no doubt I'm in better hands now
I am strong All because of you I stand in awe of Every mountain that you move I am changed Yesterday is gone I am safe From this moment on... And there's no fear when the night comes 'round I'm in better hands now
Chorus
It's like the sun is shining When the rain is pourin' down It's like my soul is flying Though my feet are on the ground It's like the world is silent Though I know it isn't true It's like the breath of Jesus Is right here in this room So take this heart of mine There's no doubt
You can't be saved If you're not reaching out for help
(Jim Daddario, Thom Hardwell, Catt Gravitt)
Song Description: "This song was written for Ethan. During Thanksgiving of 2006, this precious little boy was at a bonfire at his grandparents' farm when a spark caught his sweater vest on fire, burning 85% of his body. As a new mother, I can't fathom something happening to one of my babies. Some have outward scars and many have scars on their heart-scars we can't see-but there is One who sees, and when He looks at Ethan-and when He looks at us-He sees promise, and beauty, and destiny. There is no better place to be than in the hands of God as He is carrying each one of us." - Natalie Grant
