What Would I Do?

To a Perfect Work

I type away from day to day
On this website grand,
What would I do without my hands
To write and review the things I planned?

I fix breakfast for my family
And do the dishes too,
What would I do without my hands
To stir the veggie stew?

When BB needs a washin’
Even though she’d disagree,
What would I do without my hands
To keep her from running free?

And even in my lazy times
When T.V. I watch a bit,
What would I do without my hands
Wouldn’t be easy I admit.

And when my BB walks with me
The outdoors there to share,
What would I do without my hands
Would I hang her leash on air?

And all those uses of the car
To take us here and there,
What would I do without my hands
I’d be left in such despair.

Thank God for these two hands
He wisely formed for us,
They do more things then we could number
They’re far more than a plus.

As I fold my hands to you Lord
The Creator of every one,
I thank You for these hands You made
Your Work Perfect, so well done.

So true!  This is a great reminder of one of the many things we should be more thankful for.  I especially like your prayerfully folded hands ending.

   God bless,
