in Your hands, I know he 
could be a man of peace 
so take him now, and lead him on 
and though the world would try to tear him down, 
only You can make him strong 

chains of doubt, 
and chains of hate 
never stop a man whose love is free 
to sow the seeds of faith 
all the despair of the darkest night 
can't keep his hope from turning this world 
toward the morning light 
I know this world will never understand 
or return the love that he's been born to give 
it's in the giving he receives 
his pardon is in the pardoning 
and in dying he's born again to live 

in the sound of Your voice 
he has finally found his joy 
so shine through him, and let him shine 
with the light you lit within him 
that shadows cannot bind 

chains of doubt, 
chains of hate 
never stop a man whose love is free 
to sow the seeds of faith 
all the despair of the darkest night 
can't keep his hope from turning this world 
toward the morning light 
I know this world will never understand 
or return the love that he's been born to give 
it's in the giving he receives 
his pardon is in the pardoning 
and in dying he's born again to live 

chains of doubt, 
and chains of hate 
never stop a man whose love is free 
to sow the seeds of faith 
all the despair of the darkest night 
can't keep his hope from turning this world 
toward the morning light 
I know this world will never understand 
or return the love that he's been born to give 
it's in the giving he receives 
his pardon is in the pardoning 
and in dying he's born again to live 
in Your hands
