about

From the story of Esther, written for the Scripture to Music Collective

lyrics

“Hidden Hand (Esther)” by Caroline Cobb

She was born so beautiful
A feast for the eyes
So when that king he saw that girl
He made her his wife

But then the evil man came ‘round
He wants her people dead
‘Cause one of them would not bow down
And he’s gunnin’ for his head

But the story maker’s hidden hand
Is for the hero’s good
Though villains vie for evil plans
It cannot be withstood
No, it cannot be withstood

And the man the evil man wants dead
He’s gonna hang him in the gallows
But he forgets the hidden hand
Working in the shadows

The queen became a queen you see
For such a time as this
So the evil man will hang instead
Betrayed by her kiss
Betrayed by a lover’s kiss

Chorus

There is pain written in
There is conflict, there is sin
But when the conflict resolves
We’ll see the hidden hand behind it all

Chorus
