In His Hands
Virginia Salter

It was in His hands
the beauty of His worth
It was in His hands
the reason for His birth

The weak were made strong,
the voiceless given tongue,
the blind, a sight to see.
What might He do
for the maladies of life
the frailties that make up much of me
much of you?

Might He affect the gentleness,
the tenderness, the breadth
of one hand’s touch.
Most certainly willing hands,
open hands,
hands that portray the gentleness
of a feather’s touch.

Might He?
Surely.
In His omnipotence.

In His Hands just brings to mind the song...
He's got the whole world in His hands...

He certainly affects every aspect of life, in a positive way. I sure wish we could be like that.

Great job! I enjoyed this one!

but I know Who holds the future.

This is wonderfully inspiring...

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Virginia,

This is lovely..... We are the hands of God.... And when submitted to Him, what miraculous feats can these hands do. A wonderful message, Bob <><

Nothing like being in the right hands. I loved this and thank you for it!
