Out Of My Hands
by Jars of Clay

Album: The Shelter

I wasted a rescue
Abandoned the mission
I've failed by my own hand
And watched it all go wrong
You said you could save me
That I couldn't save myself
You said that you loved me
No matter what I've done

When the light is gone and life is just a dare we take
Still the fight goes on to give my heart away

And it's out of my hands, it was from the start
In light of what you've done for me
In light of what you've done for me
You lifted my head, set me apart
In light of what you've done for me
This is what you've done for me
It's out of my hands (out of my hands)

We grow where the light is
Like trees in the highlands
We're bent by our own plans
To keep us in the dark
And I act like an orphan
Forget that you found me
But you came like a whisper
And saved me with a spark

When the light is gone and life is just a dare we take
Still the fight goes on and on to give my heart away

And it's out of my hands, it was from the start
In light of what you've done for me
In light of what you've done for me
You lifted my head, set me apart
In light of what you've done for me
This is what you've done for me
It's out of my hands (out of my hands)
It's out of my hands (out of my hands)

There's nothing in the world that I can offer
Nothing in the world that I can stand upon
Apart from you, apart from you
There's nothing in my life, nothing in my life
That you haven't given to me

It's out of my hands, it was from the start
In light of what you've done for me
In light of what you've done for me
You lifted my head, set me apart
In light of what you've done
In light of what you've done for me

Oh, it's out of my hands, it was from the start
In light of what you've done for me
In light of what you've done for me
You lifted my head, set me apart
In light of what you've done for me
This is what you've done for me

It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
Everything I have, Lord
Everything I have
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands

Oh, It's out of my hands
