Lyrics Below. “My Life Is in Your Hands” I wrote this for my daughter. It is a reflective song about trusting the Lord through hardship, uncertainty, and the long journey ahead. The lyrics move through images of a river, mountains, valleys, trials, and refining gold, expressing confidence that God remains near, guides by His Spirit, gives strength in weakness, and faithfully leads His people toward the Promised Land.
[Verse 1]
I'm going down to the river
And I know that I will see You again
I see the mountains up ahead and
I'm going there to You, oh to You
[Pre-Chorus]
I know that You are always with me
Your Spirit is my Guide
You said You'd never leave or forsake me
Lord, You're always there by my side
[Chorus]
Lord, I put my life into Your hands
Help me, help me, help me make a stand
Lord, I put my life into Your hands
Everything I need, Lord, I find only in You
Only in You
[Verse 2]
I carry this heavy burden
Lord, sometimes I feel I cannot go on
I know Your rod and staff, they comfort me
In this valley, Lord, please make me strong
[Verse 3]
In my trials and tribulations
You are my Comforter, You understand
Purifying of precious gold, my Lord
Will bring me into the Promised Land
