Sunday Celebration - Take My Hand

A Song/Life of Trust...

20 years ago, into the hand of God and the hand of Nerdy Hubby, I committed to a life-long learning of Trust.

"Doing" comes way more easier to me than "Trusting."  I often can pretend that I can face the many difficulties in life. I just keep doing and stay busy. But when it comes to just trusting that the one next to me and the One unseen will be there for me and caring for me. Doubt often seeps in.

Recently discovered a young artist, Lindsay McCaul, beautiful voice and thoughtful lyrics.  Her songs and her heart are way more mature than her 26 years of age. At this stage of my life, love songs don't often move me. Yet her "Take My Hand," a love song toward the One unseen and the one next to me gave meaning to some of my thoughts and doubts.


Take My Hand -Lindsay McCaul & Jason Ingram

I heard You say it, I know You did
You called me out into the waves and wind
And for a moment I was brave and strong
But now everything is going wrong

Didn’t You know that I’d be scared 
Couldn’t You see I was unprepared
I’m not asking for reasons You hold or the safety of land
I just need You to take my hand

I could have stayed back where I was before
And never met You in this raging storm
You’re telling me that faith is all I need
But fear is all that I can find in me

Didn’t You know that I’d be scared 
Couldn’t You see I was unprepared
I’m not asking for reasons You hold or the safety of land
I just need You to take my hand

Cuz I would be ok if You’d take my hand
I wouldn’t be afraid if You’d take my hand
All would fade away if You’d take my hand
If You’d take my hand….

Didn’t You know that I’d be scared 
Couldn’t You see I was unprepared
I’m not asking for reasons You hold or the safety of land
I just need You to take...
Won’t You please come and take…
I just need You to take my hand
