In the Hands of God

[Intro]
Gentle strum of guitar, soft piano notes
And I, I keep on walking this lonely road

[Verse 1]
Once a fool, maybe twice
Nice intentions turned to ice
Thought I knew the game, thought I knew the score
But I opened up, and now my heart's sore

[Pre-Chorus]
Count 'em up, one, two, three, four
Mistakes behind, left me wanting more
Fifth time's the charm? Maybe not, I’m not sure
But I keep believing there's a cure

[Chorus]
Oh, I hear the loneliest song
In every note, where I belong
Waiting for the one who’ll catch my soul
In the quiet, in the whole
Will I find my all, my rhyme?
Or am I just running out of time?
Turnin’ my heart over to divine
Hoping, praying, crossing the line

[Bridge]
Six and seven, eight and nine
All these chances, all this time
Fading shadows, fading light
Seeking love in the silence of the night

[Outro]
Ten times, I surrender, I pray
Putting my faith at the break of day
In the hands of God, I lay my fate
Hoping for love, beyond this state
[Verse]

I was once a fool, well maybe twice
It seems like that's what you get when your nice
I was mistaken it was thrice probably even four
That I allowed people in, now my heart is sore
Then I did again the fifth time can't be wrong
And now all I hear is the loneliest song 
Six and seven times even eight and nine
When shall I find the one whose all mine
The tenth time yes I say with I nod
Because I'm leaving it all in the hands of God...
