I had written "Call His Name" a few months earlier when I started this one with the music first, which is something I rarely do. Sonya suggested I write another inspirational tune and 15 mins later, the lyrics were finished and 4 hours later, this is what we had.
Lyrics
Hand In Hand
The tides are rising bringing waves to the shore.
You can step aside try not to break your stride
Or walk a little closer than you have before
Someone is calling asking you to make a stand
You can turn it off try not to hear his call
Or answer the call and walk Hand in Hand
Walk a little closer to the water
Talk a little longer with your brother
You can reach out and help a friend
Walking Hand in Hand
A friend is sinking drowning in their fear
You can throw a line help them up and you will find
It’s easier when you’re walking Hand in Hand
(Bridge)
The sun is shining trying to make a brighter day
Dark clouds are hiding when the light keeps on finding, a better way
Walk a little closer to the water
Talk a little longer with your brother
You can reach out and help a friend
Walking Hand in Hand
Walking Hand in Hand
