Right There in Your Hands

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was twenty-one and barely standing Still trying to find my ground Then a baby boy came into this world And turned my whole life around He'd push my hands away and tell me No mama I can do this on my own [Chorus] Alexander Crow, look what you've become A father and a man beneath God's faithful sun The grass ain't greener nowhere else Than where your family stands You've got a love worth holding onto Right there in your hands [Verse 2] Now you say mama let me help you Let me carry that for you That stubborn boy who did it all himself Grew up before I knew I see you searching for your purpose But son it's closer than you think [Chorus] Alexander Crow, look what you've become A father and a man beneath God's faithful sun The grass ain't greener nowhere else Than where your family stands You've got a love worth holding onto Right there in your hands [Bridge] I chased the wrong ones down the wrong roads And I know how empty that can be So trust the words of someone who learned the hard way What you've got is everything [Verse 3] Three little ones and one more coming A wife who puts them all before herself This house is full of something precious A kind of grace I never felt So build the legacy I couldn't Let faith and family be your name [Chorus] Alexander Crow, look what you've become A father and a man beneath God's faithful sun The grass ain't greener nowhere else Than where your family stands You've got a love worth holding onto Right there in your hands [Outro] Happy birthday to my second born Alexander Crow, you're loved beyond all words
