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)
