Subject: He's got the whole world in his hands

There's a group of fundies having a pow-wow on Kings Highway In Flatbush, Brooklyn today, and being raised among them, I knew the songs they were singing. One was, "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands." Who hasn't heard that one?
 
Nostalgically, I began to sing along, but with slightly satirical lyrics:
 
:Chorus:
He's got the whole world in his hands,
He's got the whole world in his hands,
He's got the whole world in his hands,
He's got the whole mess in his hands.
 
Verse 1:
He's got the North Korean orphans,
in his hands
He's got the child cancer victims,
in his hands
He's got the blind and deaf infants,
in his hands
He's got the whole mess in his hands.
 
Verse 2:
He's got the murdered Daniel Pearl
in his hands
He's got the soldiers in Ramallah
in his hands
He's got the homicide bombers
in his hands
He's got the whole mess in his hands
 
Verse 3
He's got the nukes in Iran
in his hands
He's got the war in Iraq
in his hands
He's got the bombers in Belfast
in his hands
He's got the whole mess in his hands.
 
Verse 4
He's got AIDS in Africa
in his hands
He's got tsunamis in Asia
in his hands
He's got the flood in Loo-siana
in his hands
He's got the whole mess in his hands
