These Hands

These hands feel your heart

They’ll never tear it apart

They feel the love

That comes from heaven above

They can touch your soul

They feel what makes life whole

They feel a place

Filled with mercy and grace

They feel the journey

Meant for two only

They build every day

They fold when I pray

They can hold you close

Like you matter most

And plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

These hands feel a treasure

Beyond all measure

They can paint a smile

That will last awhile

They can catch you when you fall

They’ll be there when you call

They can go far

When reaching for a star

They can heal

They know what to reveal

They are strong

Be they right or wrong

They show what’s true

They can change a point of view

They can turn you around

Put you on solid ground

Restore what was old

Give you something to hold

Provide some direction

As well as protection

And do a victory dance

When they get a chance

They know where God stands

These hands
