Hands

Hands that formed this great design,

Hands that wound the clock of time,

Hands that sent the Pharaoh plagues,

Hands that kept the Red Sea dry,

Hands that won great victories,

Hands that brought captivity,

Hands caught David in his fall,

Hands restored a city wall,

Hands showed small in the manger,

Hands were kept from infant danger,

Hands grew strong from plane and hammer,

Hands picked men to follow after,

Hands held scrolls of prophecy,

Hands touched eyes so they would see,

Hands made bread and fish increase,

Hands calmed waves; made storms to cease,

Hands raised dead to life again,

Hands passed wine and bread to men,

Hands prayed trembling in the garden,

Hands carried the cross to win our pardon,

Hands were nailed but they arose!

Hands point us to Heaven's throne,

Hands will greet us on that day,

Hands that made forever yours.

blessings,
