"In the Palm of Your Hand" By Alison Krauss If I could have the world and all it owns A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones If all the earth were mine to hold With wealth my only goal I'd spend my gold on selfish things Without the love that your life brings Just a little bit more is all I'd need 'til life was torn from me 2012-04-14 House Journal Page 2410 I'd rather be in the palm of your hand Though rich or poor I may be Faith can see right through the circumstance Sees the forest in spite of the trees Your grace provides for me If I should walk the streets no place to sleep No faith in promises you keep I'd have no way to buy my bread A sorry road I tread [modification] But if I trust the one who died for me Who shed his blood to set me free If I live my life to trust in you Your grace will see me through I'd rather be in the palm of your hand Though rich or poor I may be Faith can see right through the circumstance Sees the forest in spite of the trees The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Keller.
