Give me your hand:  From the album, ‘From this moment on’

A prayer that God will help us avoid being so heavenly minded, that we’re no earthly good!

 

Intro: D  Em  A7  D  Em  A7

D                            Bm                             Em                 A7                

Sometimes I feel I’m always chasing rainbows, that looking at the stars

                                                 D        G    A7

I forget the flowers on the ground.

D                 Bm                         Em                A7                               D     D7

Too heavenly to be of earthly good, I just don’t see the things I should.

G                                  A7               Bm  

I forget to share the love I have found,

              G                     Em                                 A7 

But as I look into your eyes, I see your pain reflected.

 

D                                                                       A7

Give me your hand my friend, when you’re in trouble,

                                                                                                                  D     G   A7

I can’t promise any answers, but it’s nice to know there’s someone’s there.

D                                                                       A7

Words are no comfort, when you feel deep sadness,

                                                                      D

But my hand is here, take it now and know I care.

G                     D          G                            D

Let me listen to you, when you feel like talking,

G                          Bm         E                      A7

Let me dry your tears when you need to cry.

             D                                    Em

Though I may not always understand,

       A7            D

Give me your hand.    D Em A7 D Em A7 D

 

So many times, I run around in circles,

Not getting anywhere, can’t find room to care anymore

I’m learning now to see the needs of others

And to walk with my brother through it all.

I guess I’ll never know the reasons why.

But as I look in to His eyes, I see your pain reflected.

(Chorus)(  Give me your hand: repeat and fade)
