[Verse 1: Peter Furler]
We have raised our hopes and our cities high
We have followed fragile dreams
But only One could take the measure of our goals
And we've stumbled over the trials of life
And we've wrestled the unseen
But only One can calm the storm inside our souls
[Chorus: Peter Furler]
In the hands of God, we will fall
Rest for the restless and the weary
Hope for the sinner
In the hands of God, we stand tall
Hands that are mighty to deliver
Giving us freedom
[Verse 2: Peter Furler & Phil Joel, Peter Furler]
When our strength gave way to the weight of guilt
'Til we strained for every breath
Only One could lift our shame and make us well
And when all is finished and we face
The fearsome power of death
Only One has overcome the gates of Hell
[Chorus: Peter Furler & Phil Joel]
In the hands of God, we will fall
Rest for the restless and the weary
Hope for the sinner
In the hands of God, we stand tall
Hands that are mighty to deliver
Giving us freedom
[Bridge: Peter Furler & Phil Joel]
Oh, You're amazing
You're amazing, You are
You're amazing
You're amazing, You are
And we praise You
Lord, for what Your hands have done
You're amazing
You're amazing, You are
[Chorus: Peter Furler & Phil Joel, Phil Joel]
In the hands of God, we will fall
Rest for the restless and the weary
Hope for the sinner
In the hands of God, we stand tall
Hands that are mighty to deliver
Giving us freedom (Giving us freedom)
[Outro: Peter Furler & Phil Joel, Phil Joel]
Oh, You're amazing (You're amazing)
You're amazing, You are
You're amazing (You're amazing)
You're amazing, You are
And we praise You (And we praise You)
Lord, for what Your hands have done
You're amazing (Oh, You're amazing)
You're amazing, You are
