If I could tell the world just one thing 00:09
It would be that we're all ok 00:13
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful 00:16
And useless in times like these 00:19
I won't be made useless 00:22
Won't be idle with despair 00:26
Will gather myself around my faith 00:29
For light does the darkness most fear 00:34
My hands are small, I know 00:37
But they're not yours, they are my own 00:41
But they're not yours, they are my own 00:45
And I am never broken 00:49
Poverty, stole your golden shoes 00:53
Yet it didn't steal your laughter 01:02
And heartache came to visit me 01:05
But I knew it wasn't ever after 01:10
We'll fight, not out of spite 01:13
For someone must stand up for what's right 01:17
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice 01:21
There I shall go sing 01:24
My hands are small I know 01:27
But they're not yours, they are my own 01:32
But they're not yours, they are my own 01:36
And I am never broken 01:39
In the end only kindness matters 01:44
In the end only kindness matters 01:50
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray 01:55
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray 02:07
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray 02:15

My hands are small I know 02:38
But they're not yours, they are my own 02:40
But they're not yours, they are my own 02:46
And I am never broken 02:50
We are never broken 02:54
We are God's eyes 02:57
God's hands 03:10

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

If I could tell the world just one thing

It would be that we're all ok

And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful

And useless in times like these

I won't be made useless

Won't be idle with despair

Will gather myself around my faith

For light does the darkness most fear

My hands are small, I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken

Poverty, stole your golden shoes

Yet it didn't steal your laughter

And heartache came to visit me

But I knew it wasn't ever after

We'll fight, not out of spite

For someone must stand up for what's right

'Cause where there's a man who has no voice

There I shall go sing

My hands are small I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken

In the end only kindness matters

In the end only kindness matters

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

My hands are small I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken

My hands are small I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken

We are never broken

We are God's eyes

God's hands

God's mind

We are God's eyes

God's hands

God's heart

We are God's eyes

God's hands

God's eyes

We are God's hands

We are God's hands
