Deadmans hand isnt that hot, firs it has not sp or int or anyting, also it just roots em and you have to sit still to cast anyway so if they are on you and proc it, they will still be on you unless you stop casting and move. At which point by the time you get outta melee range, the root wears off. Its junk.
Use whelp armor, as much as the stat and armor loss sux, its more than made up for in how much damage you avoid by keeping rogues slept for so long and so often, that i've had em stop attackin me cause they were sick of the sleep proc.
But yeah, one of my twinks is a holy pally and i also have a healbot druid and priest too, the pally is the best by far for pure healing. You lack dispell tho, which is huge. And you do the absolute worst dps of any class and any spec by a million miles. Swtich to ret aura and it will out dps everything else you do vs most melee classes, yes its pathetic. But you are hard as hell to kill, your mana lasts forever, and i mean 3x as long per mana as a priest, you have no spell pushback, tons of armor so you have to heal yourself far less and can heal others more and just flat out live longer. And you have an "oh crap im gettin zerged" button that no other healer has too. You can remove rogue MS, somethin priests cant do either, as well as the poison slows/dots too and the viper sting from hunters, all of which kick the crap out of priests. (as you can tell im not impressed with priests for much other than shutting OP warlocks down or being used as dispell/mana burn bots against other healers.)
The biggest things to remember as a holy pally at 39 is keep your armor up, dont be a tard and get a bunch of cloth to get your sp up, thats just stupid. You will die more, and you will take alot more damage meanign you have to heal yourself more negating the bonus SP you got, and you will have less chances to heal others because of it, also negating the bonus SP. I laugh when i see pallies in cloth as they die so easiily. Keep in mind you dont need a bunch of mana like a priest or even druid does, you will last 2-3x longer than they will with far less mana. Second thing is, its all about flash of light, and its stupid scaling. Base flash is crap, complete junk, yes its cheap but it heals less than a renew tick on my priest. But it begins to shine when you add in SP. Now while you can add maybe 20-25% to a flash heal for a priest with good healing gear and make it a little more efficient. You can easily add 150% to flash of light making it super efficient because the spell has such a low base heal. 150 v 25, that scaling is why pallies are efficient, its not mana return on crits. (although thats nice you wll only be 20% crit at most fully glyphed and chanted, 60% of 20% is only a 12% reduction in cost of flash)
Anywho, you can armory Nakiera, my pally. She should have her holy gear on. (i have 4 sets of gear, she's an old twink)
