verse 2:
In my fathers hand, joyful I can be,
so generous your hand, lord, is to me.
It's tender and forgiving, it never loses touch,
my life is worth living, you gave much.

In my fathers hand, I can also cry
and wait until the thunder passes by.
Once a mob of sinners pierced that hand with nails
the cross was then the winner and prevails.
