Jars Of Clay - Two Hands (With Lyrics)

[gigglezz425]

Just what I was thinking.......

[911desmarais]

I'm Atheist and i love this song. has a good rhythm to it.

[aepersonne]

@911desmarais - any other reason? Just curious. There's definitely a philosophical bent in this, and I'd like to know how an atheist thinks about it.

[911desmarais]

@aepersonne no not really any other reasons.

[aepersonne]

@911desmarais :) Kay. Thanks for replying.

[KAHARIAAN]

I should have listen to Jesus.

[christiejcm]

If i had two hands doing the same thing then my life would be so much better. IF i had two hands doing the same thing our lives may be better. IF I HAD TWO HANDS THENM I WOULD KNOW THAT GOD KNEW BEFORE I WAS EVEN MADE INTO EXISTENT.

[xXsoftballplaya14Xx]

:) 

[phishinit39]

Praise God.

[cassheng]

Wish I had a 3rd hand :D

[80sJerm]

Excellent song!!!! I would suggest another verse with the using our hands for service as our Master, Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace and Lord of Lords did daily!!!! Ever heard of the song "His Hands" by Kenneth Kope??????? It is likely my all time forever favorite song other than Hymns or Michael McLean's "Let It Go" about retaining and growing our love as we come unto Christ!!!!!!! Awesome song - yer all definitely inspired!!!!!!!

[xDreamAndDancex]

Choreographing a dance to this for a camp next week, and I am extremely excited to use this song! :)

[missHorseCrazy97]

how can you not like this song?

[izaJesusFreakbaby]

ah saw dese guyz live and i sang so loud when this song came on and i turned around and the people behind me were givingme da weirdest look!!XD oh well i just smiled and sang louder. i tink i annoyed the people in da front but what do they expect when ur @ da rock and worship road show!?!?

[motskow]

awesome!!!!

[Melodyotakuchan21]

This was awesome live. This song stuck with my and I'm so glad I found it.

[MollyLuver1234]

If I had 2 hands

Doin' the same thing

Lifted high,

Lifted high

Then I would be perfect, which isn't Your plan till I go to Heaven. I <3 You, Jesus!

[eagles4christ]

@MollyLuver1234 You wouldn't be perfect, you would just be more effective.

[LovingANDPeace]

@eagles4christ True,nobody is perfect!!

[JesusSavesOurSouls]

Heey i ADORE this song. Like really when you think about it ,death couldnt handle him ,and the grave couldnt hold him .Who are you gonna follow? o.o it better be jesus christ my king of kings =]

[DreamsofMajesty]

On my channel, I have a website listed that really does a good job of explaining the gospel and salvation. Its the scribd one (for any who are interested).

[2659daniel1]

Beautiful song

[porkyupine]

@EugeniusRock JoC is not recognized because the band is Christian and most people think that being a Christian is a cliche.

[TheWildmanNate]

Whats the point in disliking something? Especially when its as meaningful as this. I guess their eyes just havent been opened yet.

[porkyupine]

@TheWildmanNate Maybe they like the song but they don't like the video. Or they just don't like gospel music. Whatever their reason is it's their choice man. I love this song. I'm currently realigning my faith and these music helps me a lot.

[TheWildmanNate]

@porkyupine Thats awesome :) I mean that your realinging your faith. I just meant whats the point in pressing dislike. Its not really necessary.

[porkyupine]

@TheWildmanNate I don't really see the point either. Maybe just as you said in your comment a week ago, maybe they haven't been awakened yet.

[inhim4life1]

I love it , how true the words are. Wesay we love God and want Him in our lives ,but our actions prove otherwise. If we could just let our actions portray our words then with God's help we can be all that He wants us to be.

[biggerbetterstronger]

Let God lift up you Both of your hands, not just now but days to come.

[christsaves100]

GREAT:) we shuld always do the same thing lifted HIGH!!!!!!!

[abbysunshine1]

[iminent=gMsg2EFIjR3] 

[DanyLofico]

I recently discover this band n learn that they do exist since the 90's !!!? WHAT!!!?.....it's NOT NORMAL such a talented band so underrated! there must be a hidden reason!! (And I think I do know why!?)

But wow!! they are so good, talented, genius acoustic, helpful and encouraging message passing thru. They may b singing for Yahushua's glory but hey this is much far better and up 2 date mean to express one spiritual side feelings, rather than the damn dull, gloomy,bigotry way.

Good job!

[rivas09051]

IF WE ALL WERE DOING THE SAME THING WITH OUR HANDS HIGH AND LIFTED UP INSTEAD OF FIGHTING WITH OUR HANDS WE MIGHT HAVE A BETTER WORLD.

[megajeeca]

this song has such a great message!!! XD

God bless!!! =D

[musicspeaks2001]

jars writes such inspiring catchy songs, along with a new christian band Red Letter Hymnal. They've got awesome stuff on youtube

[2thepnt]

if we were asked sometimes if nothing good to say then say nothing at all~~there would be nothing but a blank page here it seems.Quit cursing God for your troubles and struggles in life...most caused by yourself. Putting the blame on others ~ putting fault on God~~look at what part did you play in the situation.~Grow up and get ready for the ride~....Everything happens for a reason...and theres a reason for everything happening.

[Smileyface49381]

i wish we all had the same idea to use our two hands to worship together in unity and do what God has brought us to do but instead we just sit there and watch !!!!!! God has brought us here for a reason and some of us are missing our chance and missing out on an important event!!! Don't miss your chance to do something God has brought u here to do!!!! vote up if you agree with me!!!!

[Mahal2880]

i love it..tnx for this song bebe ko..i love u .mahal kita bebe ko..

[michal0123456789]

I really like such smart lyrics, similar to somewhere in the middle

GREAT!

[skippydave83]

if i had two hands I would flip you and god at the same time.... oh wait i do. fuck u joc and god.

[Smileyface49381]

@skippydave83 hey u know what? why are you listening to a christian song and cussing about it? i just hope God will forgive you on that part dude

[MegaGod2]

@skippydave83 lol yeah man this song is about masturbation that what they do because sex is a sin lol

[smileyrox4lyf]

good song, though i dislike the fact that it's about god.. sort of..

[daespnman]

None of you guys really know what God is doing so stop arguing about it.

[daespnman]

None of you guys really know what God is doing so stop arguing about it.

[OxymoronVailarie]

that sounds wrong. "if i had two hands doing the same thing" lol

[ashlyn23h]

@OxymoronVailarie really...wow...just wow

[boredood]

"And while I ache for faith to hold me, I need to feel the scars and see the proof" makes me feel as if his hands represent his faith in God. On one hand, he knows he should have the faith for God to hold him, but on the other, he wants to see physical proof that he is real. God bless! :)

[eddycocotechno]

yay:)

[TheLaughingSniper]

8 people have dont have two hands

[MegaGod2]

i use one hand to pull it closers the other to push it away ? he has a disposion

[ashlyn23h]

@MegaGod2 he means that he doesnt always act Christian..saying that he wants to praise God all the time because some people treat Christianity like it has an on/off switch; acting like a Christian in front of 1 group of people and being a completely different person in front of another group of people..he wants 2 hands doing the same thing which is pulling God closer..i hope this helps:)

[littleplatte1]

@ashlyn23h - This is exactly I meaning I got from from the song.

[ceejay8432]

@MegaGod2, he uses one hand to pull "Him", Jesus, not "it" closer. He has a broken disposition towards lying - a liar who thirsts for the truth. The devil is the father of all lies, but Jesus is the TRUTH!!! Help us to pull HIM closer please God!!!

[DANjtheman]

I've always loved this song!!!!!!!!!!



[PhantomAlxa99]

3grewgfvewg3g3erhg4hhtqehds

[26sherrybaby]

love the song!!! video is GREAT!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS!!

[inspirme]

this group fell from God, thats why nobody cares to know them

[ceejay8432]

@inspirme how do you know that are you God? Judge not and all!!!

[inspirme]

@ceejay8432 Obviously you don't no anything. Don't use God's name in vein. I don't judge, I know by facts. Look it up.

[palmagdi]

@inspirme From where do you know that they fell from God?

[crazydaizy35]

This is absolutely my most favorite christian song ever. I love the beat to it, and the meaning. I ♥ JESUS! :)

[TheChristofLove]

@crazydaizy35 God Bless You!

[b803891214]

Love this song!!

I'm wondering what these lyrics are saying though:

And if we just keep digging we can reach the foundation

Of our souls

And if we just keep cutting all the chains from our hearts

We’ll lose control

Thanks!

[ThePlatinumPoet]

@b803891214 We talked about this in my Youth Group and we decided that we think it means: That if we just dig deep inside ourselves down to our soul and cut away all the pain we've experienced and forgive all that needs forgiviness then we can lose control and truly let Jesus guide us. Hope that helped!

[b803891214]

@ThePlatinumPoet ohoh!! Thanks for your reply! It makes sense to me now :D

[R3Radar]

@ThePlatinumPoet I like that meaning, but I think it is far more simple than that. It is saying that we are a divided people. A people who want to live for God, but instead live for the earth. Imagine the good we could do if we weren't divided and we truly lived just for God.

[kmd1155]

This is my song. It fits me to a "T"

[ettuTkciN]

Love this song. Cos it's so true. We push God away, no, don't get into that part of my life Lord. Thats mine...But if only we had both hands pulling God into our lifes...

[zelda3834midna777]

Wat is this song about?

Can someone please tell me?

[SDannieG]

@zelda3834midna777 It's about being divided against yourself. Wanting to be a part of the world yet still wanting to be a part of the family of God. You want to serve God but you don't want to give up things... The writer is saying, If only I fully surrendered to God. If only I weren't being such a hypocrite..

[frankmorency]

@SDannieG join the crowd i love how you are putting yourself out there with complete honesty

[EugeniusRock]

@zelda3834midna777 he sings about: "one hand pushing away and one hand pulling" It sort of means how you know you really need something, but dont want it. or you really want something but know you cant hav it.

[punkers3934]

only christian song i like.

[stairwaytoheaven22]

Really Cool Song, I've never heard this before. =)

[ceejay8432]

Another great song once again from JOC. @Oswlek, i don't think they produce these songs for commercial success. They are a blessing to many, and i believe that they would rather be a blessing to others than have all the commercial success in the world.

Let us fans of this great band try to promote them to our family and friends, so that they might be a blessing to many more.

[rtrrnjjan94]

Lovin it!

[smithomness01]

i love this song because the message in it is ecxactly what i feel

[JesusRad20]

Jars of Clay is so rad. God is so good. They are amazing live too.

[tfkisawesome]

I love this song! :D

[iluckyirish16]

OMG!!! Love this song. Oh I have been looking for this song forever. :) Thank God I finally found it!!! Praise the Lord. He is amazing, and this song is great. :)

[gobgirl1995]

i love this song! I love jars of clay!!

[lazy431]

this song is the best!

praise the lord!

[nittbuck1]

I know someone who sang this @ a benefit concert and he is AMAZING!

[JacketTalent]

Beautiful!!!! :) You know it's coming!!!

[homemadeSG]

our youth band has to play this, sad thing is im guitarist, its pretty hard

[manualsambo]

Its annoying, i really want this song on my ipod, but it isn't on itunes unless you buy the whole album of wow 2010

[YOUALLSTOLEMYNAME]

you can buy it on itunes for 1.29 its in the album the long fall back

[smithomness01]

this song makes me feel peaceful inside and explains how im feeling though the whole thing love it :)

[marssnw]

If i had two hands doing the same thing lift it high, lift it high. Praise Jesus

[TreATree]

loved the video and song!

[sonny6461]

I love this song b/c its exactly how i feel

[oscarfabra]

Una canción súper bonita! Tienen que escucharla!

[mustangsfcrule]

[aharoldcampbell]

A really pretty song! You have to listen to it!

[XxcountrygirlxX1]

[jasmine2227]

[vonstoogan]

The great thing about this song is that it tells it like it is.

[tigern00bzstudio]

this is so amazing the song itself

[lorries323]

Great song. I must buy this!!

Great Vid

[Oswlek]

Thanks for posting this.  JOC is a remarkable band. Strangely enough, as their commercial success declined, I feel their songwriting has improved.

[777MidnightMoon]

GREAT song, GREAT lyrics, and guess what? We have an AWESOME Father

[cheerbabigurl13]

WE SURE DO!!! I still can't fathom how amazing he is :)

[EugeniusRock]

[MrGeektron]

@EugeniusRock i know them

[EugeniusRock]

@MrGeektron good for u!

[Theah11]

@EugeniusRock its because there's no band that sounds the same as them

[TheJesusfreakmusic]

@EugeniusRock I do

[apachespook71]

@EugeniusRock

I know their good because they are my most favorite band in the WORLD!! GO JARS OF CLAY!!! <33333

[kashmalen]

such a wonderful meaningful song. if only both our hands did the same thing together. Lord please help us as we are your weak servants.

[sonny6461]

so true!!!!

[splashedpaintpro]

i thought this waz jars of clay, totaly buying this CD

[OnCalvary]

has Jars Of Clay gotten a new lead singer?

[masdog16]

This is my life rite now, If only i had 2 hands doing the same thing. Im in college rite now and its not easy to get close to god. pray for me

[bigshottobi184]

no, no it isn't i'll pray for you

[MarlaWebb]

find a Bible club on campus. My 2 did it. You can too.

[iluckyirish16]

@masdog16 It isnt easy for anyone, I'll pray for you as well. :D

[Archiesangel1234]

[shutdownforever4]

@Archiesangel1234 sure i will..=)

[ForeverInfinaty]

Of course. (:

[cheerbabigurl13]

will do :)

[oceanbluesunset]

this song is awsm, i luv it! :)

[piratesmvp]

Don't really like Jars of Clay, but this song is good. Plus, one good thing this band has done is to maintain their original style and sound throughout all their years. Other Christian bands have modified their sounds constantly and thus went on decline. Good job Jars of Clay!

[0TheVan0]

um, jars of clay is one of the few bands out their that have creatively reinvented their sound for each of their albums! and whatever genre they cross over too, they still come out on top. thats a good thing about this band

[TheFania7]

i love this song so so much

[Kadec09]

me too

[lords1child]

i love this song so much and it is so close we tend to get closer to him n then when we get close to him we tend to push him away

[TheJesusforlife]

I like this song a lot. It's great. God is the greatest!!

[21LmeL21]

this song is amazing! god has bless us with manny great bands. skillet, jars of clay, mercey me, third day, relient k, and manny others. and even though they dont meet what you yourself, like then let me tell you this not 2 be rude though, plz dont judge the may meet other peoples needs and they might be put down when they read that stuff. thanks. god bless and take care, love.

[DaughterJennifer]

Like this song. Love You Jesus so much!!! God bless all:3

[ehabee]

I listened to Skillet at the Harvest Crusade 09, and although they were not my cup of tea, I could only pray that their music reaches those who's cup of tea is maybe not the music that I enjoy myself. All glory belongs to God and may He bless those who truelly seek Him in one manner or the other.

[Yarlettin]

ahhhh iiloovee this songg....God Bless Jars Of Clay

[BiGUncleAL217]

how dare u say that about skillet 456? you have know idea, please do not judge just because u dont understand that there are people that they are reaching that jars of clay could never reach.. i like both bands. Leeland, Relient K and Switchfoot are probs my fave christian bands tho :)

[Jamesrfs]

Yep, right on!

[xtramad456]

Jesus is coming bac ... Leeland and Jars of Clay are the best I hate skillet it is bad and thay dont sing to the lorrd

[Archiesangel1234]

lol

iloveyouJesus

[OutpostGirls]

oh ya and Kutless also

[OutpostGirls]

This song is amazing! This band, and others like Skillet Switchfoot Third Day are my fav bands!! Really a touching song.

[mrest211]

wonderful song, really says what i needed to hear, does anyone know of any more songs just like this? i love this song, and this band. It really says what we do- we both push God away and pull Him close- really glad i heard this song!

[dontimmanderz]

"The Motions" by Matthew West and "Hero" by Skillet are both really good songs. Not sure if they're exactly what you're looking for though...

[klkomin]

MercyMe has alot of good songs, umm another favorite is This is Home by Switchfoot.

[Archiesangel1234]

please pray for me.

i have been having a religious battle in my head and it needs to stop now! pray for me to start living for our Lord Jesus Christ. pleeeeeeeaseeee!!!! i need all the help i can get
