These Hands
Jeff Deyo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The sun and moon and every star
Are there to show me who You are
I can be sure your fingerprints
Are everywhere, my every move

My every move, my every breath
Were meant to point to Your greatness
There's nothing made that was not made
To show Your power

These hands were made to praise You
These lips were made to lift You up
I give to You my life in worship

These feet were made to serve You
This tongue to sing of Your great love
I give to You my life in worship

A tender thought, a caring deed
A gift of love to one in need
Bringing honest acts of worship to You, Lord

These hands were made to praise You
These lips were made to lift You up
I give to You my life in worship
Oh yeah

These feet were made to serve You
This tongue to sing of Your great love
I give to You my life in worship
Lifting holy hands

Lifting holy hands in worship
To You, Lord
God, receive this
Humble sacrifice of praise

These hands were made to praise You
These lips were made to lift You up
I give to You my life in worship
Let me hear you sing it now

These feet were made to serve You
This tongue to sing of Your great love
I give to You my life in worship
Go on sing these hands

These hands were made to praise You
These lips were made to lift You up
I give to You my life in worship
Oh yes

These feet were made to serve You
This tongue to sing of Your great love
I give to You my life in worship, Lord
In worship, Lord, Lord

These hands were made to praise You
These lips were made to lift You up
I give to You my life in worship, oh Lord

These feet were made to serve You
This tongue to sing of Your great love
I give to You my life in worship
Lift up Your holy hands

Lifting holy hands in worship
To You, Lord
God, receive this
Humble sacrifice of praise

These hands were made to praise You
These lips were made to lift You up
I give to You my life in worship, Lord
In worship, yeah, yeah

These feet were made to serve You
This tongue to sing of Your great love
I give to You my life in worship

I give to You my life
My life to You in worship
Oh yeah

Oh, I give to You my life
I give to You my soul
This song is for You Lord
My life is for You Lord

Everything I do, everything I say
Everything I cry out for You
I cry out for You, I cry out for You
Yeah, worship, yeah, worship
Yeah, worship, yeah, worship

These hands were made to praise You
These lips were made to lift You up
I give to You my life in worship
And I'm really giving You life right now

These feet were made to serve You
This tongue to sing of Your great love
I give to You my life in worship
In worship, in worship





I'm crazy God
But love You Lord
