Asking our help to order His world,
God gave hands for love.

A mother brushing her daughter's hair,
A lover clasping one dear,
A father protecting a little child,
A brother waiting near~~

Asking our help to comfort His world,
God gave hands for love.

Brushing fair colors into new life,
Smoothing soft clay from a jar,
Teasing bright strings into silver song,
Tracing the path of a star~~

Asking our help to beauty His world,
God gave hands for love.

Hands stretched out to answer need,
Hands spread out for greeting,
Hands raised up to carry a load,
Hands reached out in meeting~~

Asking our help to comfort His friends,
God gave hands for love.

Contented hands holding a treasured book,
Peaceful hands folded in prayer,
Silent hands still and unconscious in sleep,
Quiet hands resting from care~~

Asking our help to cherish His gifts,
God gave hands for love.

Feeling the satin of roses and dew,
Touching the arm of a friend,
Receiving a gift from a trusting child,
Having a hand to lend~~

Asking our help to cherish His gifts,
God gave hands for love.

Hands giving time to a lonely heart,
Hands offering wine and bread,
Hands wrapping shoulders in warmer shawls,
Hands closing a crime, unread~~

Asking our help to care for His cares,
God gave hands for love.
