I’ve heard the Bible stories
about Jesus of Galilee.
How He used His hands to heal the sick,
and to make the blind man see.
When the multitudes were hungry,
compassionate hands gave them bread.
When broken hearts were grieving,
loving hands raised the dead.
When His followers were frightened,
mighty hands calmed the seas.
When Zacchaeus looked for Him,
friendly hands brought him from that tree.
When the woman at the well searched for God,
teaching hands showed her the way.
When His disciples needed strength or help,
prayerful hands taught them to pray.
But I’d only heard the stories.
I’d never seen the hands,
till’ I saw you with the children.
then I began to understand.
Your hands are His hands.
You’ve surrendered them to His will.
Now He works through your hands,
and touches the children still.
Thank you for the hands that taught,
that led and loved this year.
And thank you for the chance to see
Jesus’ hands are working here.
