He Laid His Hands On Me
Lee Williams & The Spiritual QC's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know the Lord God Almighty
I know the Lord God Almighty
I know the Lord God Almighty
He laid His hands on me

I was sitting there on what they call that mourning bench I was filled
(Filled with misery)
but that same God that touched my mother one day
stopped by and laid His (hands on me)

Hands on me
set my soul free
saved a sin sick soul
made my body whole
He laid His hands on me





Hands on me
He laid his hands on me
