The Hands That Touched My Feet

Chorus:
The hands that touch my feet can feel my heart, He reaches right into the deepest part
Where I may try to hide, some secret pain inside, He sees every callous, every scar
When he sees my feet I’m wracked with so much shame, The condition of my heart is just the same.
And I pray it doesn’t show cause it’s killing me to know
That the hands that touch my feet can feel my heart

Verse 1:
It’s only water, no big deal, It’s not as though my feet have not been washed before.
But I am struggling, with how to feel. To see the master kneel before me on the floor

Verse 2:
His loving hands, wipe away, All the dirt and filth from all the miles I’ve crossed
It’s oddly quiet, what could I say, As living water bares each wound those miles have caused

Bridge:
They are tattered and un-kept, they are pungent from the sweat.
And I don’t know why He doesn’t turn away.
He looks up into my face, and I am overwhelmed by grace
And the mercy I find there I can’t explain.

Chorus:
The hands that touch my feet can feel my heart, He reaches right into the deepest part
Where I may try to hide, some secret pain inside, He sees every callous, every scar
When he sees my feet I’m wracked with so much shame, The condition of my heart is just the same.
And I pray it doesn’t show cause it’s killing me to know
That the hands that touch my feet can feel my heart
