[Verse 1]
Every plan that you made has been swept by the tide,
Every dream slipping through like sand;
You are weary and worn, you have nowhere to hide,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.

[Chorus]
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand,
Every scar tells the Father's plan;
He will keep to the end, He's the dearest of friends,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.

[Verse 2: drums enter]
When you walk all alone where the shadows grow long,
In a dry and a weary land,
He will quiet your fears, He will give you a song,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.

[Chorus]
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand,
Every scar tells the Father's plan;
He will keep to the end, He's the dearest of friends,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.

[Verse 3: full band]
Would you walk in the will of the risen King?
Would you build where His word will stand?
Lay your crowns at His feet, let your broken heart sing,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge: quiet, then building]
Is your soul bending low with its load of sin?
Is the weight more than you can stand?
It was nailed to the tree, and He's calling you in,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.

[Key Change]

[Final Chorus: gospel choir, full band]
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand,
Every scar tells the Father's plan;
He has held from the start, He will hold to the end,
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
