Written prayers can have two possible effects
Encouragement or warning
What do these do for you?
The significance of the repeated opening line is that
a King would use his right hand as a symbol of authority

The right hand of God is writing in our land
Writing with Power and with love
Our conflicts and our tears
Our triumphs and our tears
Are recorded by the right hand of God
The right hand of God is pointing in our land
Pointing the way we must go
So clouded is the way
So easily we stray
But we’re guided by the right hand of God.
The right hand of God is striking in our land
Striking out at envy, hate and greed
Our selfishness and lust
Our pride and deeds unjust
Are destroyed by the right hand of God
