Beautiful Hands

0

Have you seen a man with beautiful hands,
Strong and straight, and true?
I've seen some men with beautiful hands,
But only one or two.

Oh, don't you see the Man with beautiful hands,
Strong and straight, and true?
But wait, what is that I see? A scar?
Yes, there's one, there's two.

A scar in each hand for eternity,
He allowed it put there by you and by me,
For He gave Himself so unselfishly,
By His Love, His Love Unconditionally.

His beautiful hands are scarred by Love,
His Love for all since before earth began,
He came, you see, to die for all,
Those who believe may live within His Beautiful Hands.

He says, "Behold, I have graven thee within the palms of my hands."
Such Beautiful, Beautiful Hands.
The Beautiful Hands of my Savior,
My name is written within the palms of His Beautiful Hands.


The Book Of Life

I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.

So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease.

All day long I had no time
To spread a word of cheer.
No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They'd laugh at me I'd fear.

No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
But at last the time, the time to die.

I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book;
It was the book of life.

God looked into his book and said
"Your name I cannot find.
I once was going to write it down...
But never found the time"
