Hey, I just wanted to share this song written by Mrs. Hannah Hon called "Hands Wide Open." I also have the chords if anybody wants them. Here's a link to hear what the song sounds like from facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aubrey.jones.5 ... 703198476/

Verse 1:
So often I am tempted to keep my hands closed tight
Around the things I love the most to keep them safe and mine
But the closer that I grasp, the more I see the lack
Of the faith I need in Him
So Lord, I bring before You the things I love the most
The ones I hold so close to me
The parts I can't let go
But Lord, here's what I ask
Is that as I relax my grasp
Help me trust your plan.

Chorus:
Lord, I want to live with my hands open
Open to Your plan
Help me yield myself completely as Your Word demands
Never trusting in my might
But in what you said is right
Keep my hands wide open

Verse 2:
I want a life lived for you Lord so when others look at me
There are no selfish parts to see
Just the cross of Calvary
I want your love to show, so that others they will know
Just how you first loved me
So here's my life please take it, Lord
Use now every part
I won't hold back despite the fear raging in my heart
I give my life to You giving all I have to You
Work through me Your plan

(CHORUS)

I need Thee, Lord, I need Thee
Ev'ry hour I need Thee
O, bless me now, my Savior
I come to Thee

Lord, I come with hands wide open
Open to Your plan
Use my life now completely
As Your Word demands
Never trusting in my might
But in what You said is right
Keep my hands
Lord, hold my hands
Keep my hands wide open
