Gather The Hands

G#m                      D#m
She was delivered by the grace of 
his hands
F#                    C#
Kindness, relentless, wired to be 
shared
G#m                       D#m
People stood awkwardly and gazed 
across the room
F#                                
She walked with such elegance in 
  C#
the places that she knew


[Verse]

G#m                     
Flawlessness, contagious, 
  D#m
compassionate, engagement
        F#                       
In these hands I belong, in these 
C#
hands you belong
G#m                        D#m
Foolish, segregation, scars deep 
beneath the skin
       F#                          
Of the black man and the white man 
   C#
and everyone in between


G#m   D#m   F#   C#   x2

[Verse]

        G#m                     
Forever sacred was the feminine, 
       D#m
right down to the final hour
          F#                       
When every baby to be taken was to 
   C#
be poisoned to be soured
      G#m                          
Bodies turning in their graves and 
       D#m
spirits waiting to go home
      F#                           
Disconnected from their holy place 
         C#
when the museum stole their bones


[Verse]

    G#m                            
Cry freedom, still bleeding, still 
D#m
waiting for a reason
            F#                     
Throw these arms around the world, 
            C#
Throw these arms around the world
            G#m                D#m
Through the eye of a needle we tried
 to move the stone
   F#                         C#
So heavy from its history, of shame 
and blood and bone


G#m   D#m   F#   C#


[Chorus]

           F#
Gather the hands to move the stone
           C#
Gather the hands to move the stone
        G#m
Sing it up to the heavens
       D#m              C#
Let it rain down on us all

(x6)
