You Open Up Your Hand

Music by Elton Smith
Words by Lenny Smith and Elton Smith

You heal the broken-hearted
And You bind up every wound
You number all the stary hosts
And You give each song its tune
You comfort the afflicted
For these things we bless Your name
Our praise is often feeble, Lord
But You love us just the same

O, You open up Your Hand
And You satisfy our hearts
You supply the needs of every living thing
Yes, You open up Your hand
And You satisfy our hearts
And before you now our hearts we humbly bring

You bless the little children
They will never be alone
You call them gently to Your side
And describe to them their home
We are Your little children
And we hold on to Your hand
Sometimes we try to pull away
But You help us understand

O, You open up Your Hand
And You satisfy our hearts
You supply the needs of every living thing
Yes, You open up Your hand
And You satisfy our hearts
And before you now our hearts we humbly bring

Lord, the world is filled
With Your glory and Your praise
All creation looks to You for life
Lord, we stand in awe
You are righteous in all Your ways
You supply our every need
As we look to you all our days

O, You open up Your Hand
And You satisfy our hearts
You supply the needs of every living thing
Yes, You open up Your hand
And You satisfy our hearts
And before you now our hearts we humbly bring
And before you now our hearts we humbly bring
And before you now our hearts we humbly bring
