Whole World - Petra

Hearts are falling left and right

Children fear this planet’s plight

Fatalistic fears abound

And take their toll without a sound

But through the vague uncertainty — comes a bold assurity

This world is under sovereignty — divinely ordered destiny

He holds this world together with the Word of His power

Safe within His hands — til its own appointed hour

He’s still got the whole world in His hands — tonight

And only He knows where the sparrow lands — tonight

And nothing in this world can stop His plans — tonight

'Cause He’s still got the whole world in His hands

In His hands tonight

Humanistic lies lament

The holocaust is imminent

Doomsday prophets in the news

Predicting who will light the fuse

The fate of His creation isn’t subject to a man

The final consummation is according to His plan

He’s still got you — He’s still got me in His hands tonight
