THE HANDS THAT GUIDE US WILL HELP US FIND OUR WAY
Yellow birds and red lilies they all seem to be the same
When winter comes they fly south or bloom another day
Nature has no predestination for us, our future is our own to make
The hands that guide us will help us find our way
Big hands, small hands, hands that play all day
Just as the yellow bird flies south, they will all find their own way
Light hands, dark hands, hands that are all the same
History is not written yet, make your own way
Hands that write, hands that might one day take flight
Hands that draw, hands that might one day awe
Just as the yellow bird seeks out the warm sands
We may all be reminded that the future is in our hands
