This is your world
I'm just living in it
The lilies ain't worried 'bout it
And the birds ain't chirpin' 'bout it
And you've done more for me
Than you've done for the trees
So, why would I even doubt it
If the rocks on the ground can say it
And a sky full of clouds can paint it
Who am I to be here complainin'?
Only thinking 'bout what I would change, yeah
This is your world
I'm just living in it
I'm just walking through it
Knowing that you're with me
This is your world
I'm just living in it
I'm just praying through it
Knowing that you listen
Hold up, every single one of my own plans
See, I'd rather have your heart
So I'll put 'em in your hands, mmm
This is your world
I'm just living in it
(He's got the whole world in His hands)
(He's got the whole world in His hands)
The world hasn't stopped turning
And the sun hasn't stopped burning
You make the universe expand
Just because you can
But I know you're more concerned about me
Worry can't add another minute to my life
Before I started you charted out the finish line, I know that
This is your world
I'm just living in it
I'm just walking through it
Knowing that you're with me
This is your world
I'm just living in it
I'm just praying through it
Knowing that you listen
Hold up, every single one of my own plans
See, I'd rather have your heart
So I put 'em in your hands, hold up
Hold up, every single one of my own plans
See, I'd rather have your heart
So I put 'em in your hands
Hold up, every single one of my own plans
See, I'd rather have your heart
So I put 'em in your hands, hold up
Hold up, every single one of my own plans
See, I'd rather have your heart
So I put 'em in your hands
This is your world
I'm just living in it
(He's got the whole world in His hands)
(He's got the whole world in His hands)
