I Place My Heart into Your Hand

I place my heart into Your hand –
And wait for You to work Your plan.
You know my hope and inward thought
And thus my yielding You have sought.

I place my heart into Your Hand –
I can’t keep it, but Lord – you can.
Lord, make your face the One I seek;
Alone I am so very weak.

I place my heart into Your hand –
No knight from any home or land
Shall take it; only if You say:
“This is my man for You alway.”

I place my heart into Your hand –
Upon Your grace and truth I stand.
When tempted my pure treasure give
I’ll cry to You. For You I’ll live!

I place my heart into Your hand –
For only You can understand.
And one day I’ll look back and see
You truly knew the best for me.



Based on Proverbs 4:23, Jeremiah 24:6-7
