Handful of Dust
Anthony Arata/Morganactive Songs Inc./Pookie Bear Music/ASCAP

Verse One
Break us down by our elements
And you might think He failed
We're not copper for one penny
Or even iron for one nail
And a dollar would be plenty to buy twenty of us
Until God's love is added to these handfuls of dust.

Chorus
Handful of dust, handful of dust
Sums up the richest and poorest of us
God's love makes priceless the worthless
Whenever it is added to a handful of dust

Verse Two
However small thought our worth may be
When shared between two hearts
Is even more than it would ever be
Measured on it's own, apart
And half what it could be is now twice what it was
When God's love is added to these handfuls of dust.

Repeat Chorus
