Out Of My Hands
Embracing Destiny: Surrendering to the Inescapable Mysteries of Love
Lyrics
I can't make the snow come down
I lack the ability to control snowfall
I cannot make it rain
I cannot influence or bring about rain
I can't make the sun go down
I have no control over the sunset
Or to rise and burn again
Nor can I dictate the sunrise and its fiery rebirth
I can't make you love me more
I cannot increase your love for me despite my efforts
No matter how I try
No matter how hard I try
Your grace alone can justify
Only your grace can validate and justify
That kind of love just mystifies
A certain kind of love that baffles understanding
That kind of love just mystifies
Reiterating the mysterious nature of that love
It's out of my hands- though I try so hard
Despite my efforts, certain things are beyond my control
It's out of my hands- when I slip and fall
Acknowledging the inevitability of mistakes and setbacks
It's out of my hands- I will rest in you
Finding solace in surrendering to a higher power
You know my voice- yours hears my call
Recognizing that you, the listener, understand my voice
It's out of my hands
Reiterating the acceptance of things beyond control
I can't make the world spin 'round
I lack the power to make the world revolve
Or catch a falling star
Unable to catch a falling star, symbolizing elusive dreams
I can't set the night on fire
No ability to ignite the night or dispel darkness
And burn away the dark
Powerless to banish the metaphorical darkness
I can't make you love me more
Even my actions can't intensify your love
Can't impress you with my deeds
Unable to impress with deeds or actions
I can't make you love me less
I cannot diminish your love for me
That kind of love is what i need
Expressing a need for a specific kind of love
That kind of love is what i need
Repeating the desire for a particular kind of love
It's out of my hands- though I try so hard
Despite efforts, certain aspects remain beyond control
It's out of my hands- when I slip and fall
Accepting the reality of mistakes and failures
It's out of my hands- I will rest in you
Finding comfort in surrendering to a higher force
You know my voice- yours hears my call
Acknowledging that the listener recognizes the voice
It's out of my hands
Reiterating the acceptance of things beyond control
It's out of my hands- when I have no strength
Accepting powerlessness in moments of weakness
It's out of my hands- I will look to you
Finding strength and guidance by looking to a higher power
It's out of my hands- you will never fail
Trusting that a higher power will not disappoint
Your love's a grip I can't slip through
Describing an unwavering grip of love that cannot be escaped
It's out of my hands- though I try so hard
Despite efforts, certain things remain beyond control
It's out of my hands- when I slip and fall
Accepting the inevitability of mistakes and falls
It's out of my hands- I will rest in you
Finding peace in surrendering to a higher power
You know my voice- yours hears my call
Acknowledging that the listener understands the voice
It's out of my hands
Reiterating the acceptance of things beyond control
It's out of my hands- though I try so hard
Despite efforts, certain things remain beyond control
It's out of my hands- when I slip and fall
Accepting the reality of mistakes and stumbles
It's out of my hands- I will rest in you
Finding solace in surrendering to a higher power
You know my voice- yours hears my call
Acknowledging that the listener recognizes the voice
It's out of my hands
Reiterating the acceptance of things beyond control
