God's Hands

Never hands
so strong and sure
as Jesus’ hands.

Never words
so good and true
as Jesus’ words.

Never life
so fully lived
so fully given
as Jesus’ life.

Accepting
the Father’s will,
committed
to the Father’s hands,
raised in power -
the Son of God.

Lord,
my spirit,
my times,
are in your hands.
I put my hands
in yours
to reach out
and be
your hands
to those in need.
