Help me remember, Lord...
When I'm lost in all the chaos,
you hold me in your hands...
When nothing seems to make much sense,
you hold me in your hands...
When I'm overwhelmed by bald-faced lies,
you hold me in your hands...
When I've no faith in the powers that be,
you hold me in your hands..
When I'm stressed by every newscast,
you hold me in your hands...
When I fear for all I once held dear,
you hold me in your hands...
When I'm all alone and anxious,
you hold me in your hands...
When virtue is unknown, unsung,
you hold me in your hands...

When I can't find any answers,
you hold me in your hands...
When the craziness is just too much,
you hold me in your hands...
When it seems there's no way out, Lord,
you hold me in your hands...
When I feel betrayed on every side,
you hold me in your hands...
When standards fail and crash and burn,
you hold me in your hands...
When I wonder if I'm losing it,
you hold me in your hands...
When no eyes blink when lies are told,
you hold me in your hands...
When loyalty is bought and sold,
you hold me in your hands...

When I can't sort fiction from the truth,
you hold me in your hands...
When I don't know what or whom to trust,
you hold me in your hands...
When justice has become a joke,
you hold me in your hands...
When bullies throw their weight around,
you hold me in your hands...
When honor has become passé,
you hold me in your hands...
When profit outweighs principles,
you hold me in your hands...
When it seems that I've nowhere to go,
you hold me in your hands...
When betrayal masquerades as care,
you hold me in your hands...
Help me remember, Lord,
and let me never forget
that no matter what may come my way,
you hold me in your hands...
Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake
and watch over me while I sleep
that awake, I might keep watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace...
Amen.

You don't have to worry
And don't you be afraid
Joy comes in the morning
Troubles they don't last always
For there's a friend in Jesus
Who will wipe your tears away
And if your heart is broken
Just lift your hands and say
Oh
I know that I can make it
I know that I can stand
No matter what may come my way
My life is in your hands
You don't have to worry
And don't you be afraid
Joy comes in the morning
Troubles they don't last always
For there's a friend in Jesus
Who will wipe your tears away
And if your heart is broken
Just lift your hands and say
Oh
I know that I can make it
I know that I can stand
No matter what may come my way
My life is in your hands
With Jesus I can take it
With Him I know I can stand
No matter what may come my way
My life is in your hand
When your tests and trials
They seem to get you down
And all your friends and loved ones
Are nowhere to be found
Remember there's a friend in Jesus
Who will wipe your tears away
And if you heart is broken
Just lift your hands and say
Oh
I know that I can make it
I know that I can stand
No matter what may come my way
My life is in your hands
With Jesus I can take it
With Him I know I can stand
No matter what may come my way
My life is in your hands
