A Canadian hit led by refreshing piano and chorus.
"Put Your Hand In The Hand" is a single by Canadian band Ocean that reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100.
This gospel rock song, written by Gene McLellan, features a light piano riff and handclap-infused chorus that creates a positive, uplifting feeling. The song elevated the religious lyrics to a bright, universal tone, achieving a massive hit, reaching number two on the US pop charts in 1971. Along with the B-side, "Tear Down the Fences," it is considered a representative work that expanded the presence of Christian rock in the Canadian music scene at the time.
