The Hands of God

The hands of God, that makes the whole creation new
That guide us through the path that we must tread
They lifted up the lowly and the poor, hands that brought down
The mighty from their thrones

                The hands of God that guide us through the years
                From doubt and fears those hands have led us through
                They call for faith and hope and love that reign in us
                The hands of God that work through you and me

The hands that make the lame to walk and blind to see
The hands that work to set our people free
The hands that touch the sinners and the lonely
Our hands of God that work through you and me

The hands of God that make the Church to live and grow
That give its power to face all fears and woes
The hands that make for the peace to reign or o’er us
Our hands of God that work through you and me
