Sanctuary (Too Big for My Hands) [Contemporary R&B/Gospel Fusion, Mid-tempo groove, Soulful Female Vocals, Heavy Bass & Organ. Vibe: Empowering, rhythmic, soulful.] [Intro] (Spoken) Listen... sometimes love means stepping back. Sarah’s speaking... Lord, I need You in the room right now. Check it. [Verse 1] I walk past the door, I catch the scent Wondering where my sweet boy went. Grades are slipping, the eyes are red A thousand worries spinning in my head. I wanna scream, I wanna kick and fight I wanna force you to do what’s right. But I’m losing my peace, I’m losing my sleep Digging a hole that’s way too deep. (Way too deep, yeah!) [Pre-Chorus] I can’t be the police (No!) I can’t be the judge (No!) Holding on to this heavy grudge. I’m drawing a line in the sand today I’m clearing the smoke and I’m clearing the way! [Chorus] This house is a Sanctuary! (No more darkness in here) My heart is a Sanctuary! (I’m wiping away the fear) Lord, I’m trading my panic for Your plans ‘Cause this boy... he’s got too big for my hands! Too big for my hands! (Yeah!) Too big for my hands! (I give him to You!) This house is a Sanctuary. [Verse 2] Dear Lord, it’s me, I’m on the floor again. I’m trading the mother for the Next of Kin. I surrender the weed, I surrender the lies I surrender the look in his teenage eyes. I can’t save him, I ain't the Christ I paid the bills, but You paid the price! (Doo-doo-wop, da-ba-day, yeah-eh-eh!) So take the wheel, ‘cause I’m stepping back Put my life back on the track. [Chorus] This house is a Sanctuary! (Clear the air!) My heart is a Sanctuary! (I’m staying right here!) Lord, I’m trading my panic for Your plans ‘Cause this boy... he’s got too big for my hands! [Verse 3] Now love looks different, it’s gotta be tough I’ve given you all, but it wasn’t enough. So if you fall down, you gotta get up alone I’m silencing the drama, I’m muting the phone. I see the man that you’re destined to be But you gotta walk that road, not me! No more rescue missions, no more bail I’m trusting that God won't let you fail! (I’m standing firm! I’m standing tall!) [Bridge] I let go! (Let go!) Of the control! (Control!) I let go! (Let go!) Of the heavy load! (Heavy load!) I can’t fix it! (No I can't!) I can’t mix it! (No I won't!) God, You catch him when he falls I’m taking Your peace behind these walls! [Vocal Run / Scat Section] Whoa-oh-oh-oh... Yeah-ee-yeah! He’s Yours, Lord! Ba-da-ba-da-bop-bop... I can’t hold him anymore, he’s too heavy, Lord! [Final Chorus] This house is a Sanctuary! (Sanctuary!) My heart is a Sanctuary! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!) Lord, I’m trading my panic for Your plans ‘Cause this boy... he’s got too big for my hands! [Outro] Too big for my hands. (I trust You with him.) Too big for my hands. (I’m going to sleep tonight.) Sanctuary. (Spoken) Amen.
