I remember the day that he came in

I can't believe how long it's been

Like a poet, he began to play



Just an old friend that hung with the band

A drinkin' man, he had no plan

But he played the 'Bird, played it for free



'Cause I know he's here, he's everywhere

Take a look around, oh and you will see

That cross we bear, it's in the air

Lord, we thank You for those gifted hands



There are demons we live with every day

That tear at our hearts and take us away

To another place some of us don't get back



This song is for the hands of the workin' man

Who believes in himself and he understands

Love, hope, and faith are The Maker's plan



'Cause I know he's here, he's everywhere

Take a look around, oh and you will see

That cross we bear, it's in the air

Lord, we thank You for those gifted hands



One day we'll all take that ride

And with those gifted hands I know you'll fly
