these broken hands of mine

Singer:brooks, joe

take a breath

i close my eyes

i am lost but try to find

what it is in this life that gives me strength enough

to fight for something more

well

god knows my feet are aching

and i've got mountains ahead to climb

one way at a time i'll try to lend these broken hands of mine

give me strength

be my light

one way at a time these walls will fall and fill our empty souls

give me strength

help me guide these broken hands of mine

the sky is grey

it clouds your world

clear the air

child

break the mould

i find a place in your heart

to build a shelter from this cold and winding road

well

god knows you're barely standing

but you've got to carry this heavy load

one way at a time i'll try to lend these broken hands of mine

give me strength

be my light

one way at a time the peace will grow and fill our empty souls

give me strength

help me guide these broken hands of mine

oh

these broken hands of mine

what if there's more

what if there's more

what if there's more than this

what if there's more out there?

one way at a time i'll try to lend these broken hands of mine

give me strength

be my light

one way at a time the peace will grow and fill our empty souls

give me strength

help me guide these broken hands of mine

these broken hands of mine
