He's Got the Whole World in His Hands Lyrics
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His
hands,
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His
hands,
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His
hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got the sun and the rain in His hands,
He's got the moon and the stars in His
hands,
He's got the wind and the clouds in His
hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got the rivers and the mountains in His
hands,
He's got the oceans and the seas in His
hands,
He's got you and he's got me in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got everybody here in His hands,
He's got everybody there in His hands,
He's got everybody everywhere in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
