Hand On Me

I knew all along that there would be
Some place for me
But I couldn't see
All the things He planned forever
And what my life could be
But my Father had His hand on me

I knew long ago when lookin'
For love I could buy
The price was way too high
Still I might have paid forever
And never questioned why
But my Father kept His hand on me

When the life I chose
Would lead me to despair
Was more than I could bear
He was there, He was there

He knew all along that I would be
Living for Him
Loving for Him
So until the time appointed me
When I could enter in
My Father kept His hand on me

Here am I again still learnin'
What life has for me
But now I can see
Even when the darkness takes ahold
I can still be free
'Cause my Father has His hand on me
