Silent Hands

Posted by moonbeamsnowflake on August 27, 2008 at 10:02 AM

For the past couple of weeks I've been listening to ksbj.org (out of Houston), which is a "Christian" station. And every morning I wake up with one of the songs in my head. Yesterday morning I didn't recognize the song. I searched for it on the Internet and couldn't find it. So I wrote down the part I remembered and made up the rest. My daughter Rachel searched for it too and decided that I am the author of this song. I hope y'all enjoy it.

One:

They say angels are messengers
Sent from above
Guiding us, helping us
Resist unto blood
And I know it's true 'cause I'd never be
Able to overcome
What overcomes me

Two:
Having no sustenance
Down on my luck
Wandering, bewildered
In the mud and the muck
Faithful ones find me and they take me in
Feed me and lead me
Where I've never been

Three:
Emptied and weary
I fall on my face
Losing all sight of
God's wonderful grace
Filled with misgivings, discouraged, depressed
Somehow I'm lifted
Somehow I'm blessed

Chorus:
Silent hands rescue me
Give me hope, set me free
Take me into a place
Of peace
When my eyes cannot see
And my heart fails me
Silent hands
Silent hands
Rescue me
