Title: “A Hand in the Clouds”

Verse 1
I stopped my car and threw away my keys,
I stared at the horizon and, man, what I did see—
Beautiful colors, orange, yellow, and pink
The wind held its breath, as if to give me time to think

Pre-Chorus
The silence spoke louder 
than a marching crowd,
And the sky began to shimmer, 
All soft and proud.

Verse 2
The weight of the world slid off my chest,
I whispered a prayer, and hoped for the best.
The sun bowed low, dipped into the tide,
I stood there alone, but felt something inside.

Pre-Chorus
A presence unknown, but not to fear,
Like someone I’d loved was drawing near.

Chorus
A hand formed in the clouds, reaching down to me,
Felt like I was chosen, finally free.

Verse 3
I don’t know what I saw that day,
But it called my soul and lit my way.
No map, no plan, just faith in the air,
And I walked on, like someone was there.

I let go of control and followed the dawn…
Left the highway behind, and the silence led me on…

Chorus
A hand formed in the clouds, reaching down to me,
Felt like I was chosen, finally free.

The heavens opened up, no thunder, no sound,
Just peace rolling in like waves on holy ground.
A hand in the clouds, and I believed—
That something out there still watches me.

I stopped my car and threw away my keys…
And found the road I was meant to be on.

Chorus
A hand formed in the clouds, reaching down to me,
Felt like I was chosen, finally free.
