These Hands

These hands have calmed a raging sea
These hands created everything
These hands are the authors of our destiny
These hands were stretched across a tree

These hands healed and cleansed a leper
These hands both created and calmed the stormy weather
These hands have held the face of a child
These hands hold the universe together

These hands have held court
In the market place of sinners
These hands have healed the blind and lame
These hands held the whip
That drove out the temple traders
And these hands took away my shame

These hands saved a man from drowning
These hands multiplied the fish and the bread
These hands knew what would be coming
That these hands would soon be stained with red

These hands have held court
Before an angry mob
These hands stretched forth, as if to say
"Father forgive them for what they have done"
These hands have rolled away
A stone that weighed too much
And these hands now beckon us to come
These hands now beckon us to come
