1 Have you failed in your plan of your storm-tossed life? Place you hand in the nail-scarred hand; Are you weary and worn from its toil and strife? Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand. Chorus: Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand, Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand; He will keep to the end, He's your dearest friend, Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand. 2 Are you walking alone through the shadows dim? Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand; Christ will comfort your heart, put your trust in Him, Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand. [Chorus] 3 Would you follow the will of the risen Lord? Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand; Would you live in the light of His blessed Word? Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand. [Chorus] 4 Is your soul burdened down with its load of sin? Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand; Throw your heart open wide, let the Savior in, Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand. [Chorus] Source: Baptist Hymnal 2008 #513

"Christ will comfort your heart, put your trust in Him, Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand." In all our agony and tribulations, Christ will comfort us.... ! This is the most relieving thought... Lovely lyrics dear Sara!

Amen. The hurts are daily, minute by minute, somewhere on the planet. This hymn is medicine! So, always, there is a need for Saviour Jesus, who made Father God approachable, known intimately now in faith (& obedience)

Thank you, Kim. It saddens me quite often when I think He did for me, that my sin drove those nails, etc. Thanks for the kind review. Sara

Anne-Lise, I don't have the voice that I once had and neither the wind to hold out long in singing. I have sung it and it is beautiful. Thanks for stopping by. Sara
