Hallelujah, for the Hands that hold you now There’s not a day goes by that I don’t see you You live on in all the better parts of me Until I’m standing with you in the sun, I'll fight this fight and this race I’ll run Until I finally see what you can see Mark Hall, Matthew West © 2021 My Refuge Music (BMI) (admin. at EseentialMusicPublishing.com); Combustion Five / Third Story House Music (ASCAP) (admin. by Me Gusta Music obo Combustion Five and Third Story House Music) #castingcrowns #scarsinheaven #heaven #loss #christian #ccm #worship #jesus #theonlyscarsinheaven #handsthatholdyounow #grief
