Lyrics

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man from galilee
Every time I look into the holy book I wanna tremble
When I read about the part where a carpenter cleared the temple
For the buyers and the sellers where no different fellas
Than what I profess to be
And it causes me pain to know that i'm not the gal that I should be
Mama taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven
And when i'm down on my knees that's a when i'm close to heaven
Daddy lived his life, with two kids and a wife you do what you must do
But he showed me enough of what it takes to get you through
+ put your hand in the hand of the man from galilee

(Joan baez)
