Refrain First Line: Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand Lyrics: 1. Have you failed in your plan of your storm-tossed life?
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
Are you weary and worn from its toil and strife?
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
He will keep to the end,
He's your dearest friend,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
2. Are you walking alone through the shadows dim?
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
Christ will comfort your heart, put your trust in Him,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
He will keep to the end,
He's your dearest friend,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
3. Would you follow the will of the risen Lord?
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
Would you live in the light of His blessed Word?
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
He will keep to the end,
He's your dearest friend,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
4. Is your soul burdened down with its load of sin?
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
throw your heart open wide, let the Savior in,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand;
He will keep to the end,
He's your dearest friend,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand. Languages: English Tune Title: LUBBOCK
