Story behind the song

Be His Hands
Intro - Verse 1 - Verse 2 - Chorus - Break - Verse 3 - Chorusx2 - Bridge - Intro - Verse 4 - Chorusx2 - Intro(End on C major)
Intro Cm2 - AbM7 - Bb2 - Cm2
--Verse 1--
It's a [Cm]cold dark evening at a [Eb]lonesome home
A [AbM7]widower sits and he [Bb2]cries he alone
The [Cm]years have passed him and so [Eb]many have gone
He [AbM7]lives in a world that is [Bb]not his [G]own.
--Verse2--
It's a [Cm]cold dark evening at the [Eb]edge of town
[AbM7]A crowded room, but he's not [Bb2]looking around
His [Cm]head is bowed, but it's [Eb]not in prayer
He [AbM7]tries to forget, but the [Bb]pain is still [G]there
--Chorus--
While we're [Cm]on our knees
There's a [AbM7]world in need
Can we [Gm7]reach out and [Eb]be [Bb]His
[Cm]Hands and feet and live what [AbM7]we believe
Will we [Bb]reach out and [G+]be [G]His [Cm]hands (Are we)
--Verse 3--
It's a [Cm]cold dark evening and the [Eb]stars are bright
But [AbM7]choices she made took [Bb2]away her life
[Cm]Echos of the past are [Eb]all that remain
An[AbM7]other broken soul and a [Bb]heart of [G]shame
--Verse 4--
It's a [Cm]cold dark evening and the [Eb]kids are asleep
[AbM7]This time tomorrow they'll be [Bb2]out on the street
The [Cm]factory closed and the [Eb]jobs have moved on
She [AbM7]worries and she cries, but her [Bb]hope is [G]gone
--Bridge--
[Ab]This is [Gm7]not the [Fm7]end, [Bb2]Shout it loud
[Ab]This is [Gm7]not the [Fm7]end, [Bb2]Grace abounds
[Ab]Shine un[Gm7]til the [Fm7]end, let [Eb]love re[Bb]sound
