> Thank you Lord for dirty hands
> That touch my stove and fridge;
> For sticky little fingers that
> Try to build a bridge.
>
> For careless hands that go astray
> In search of something new;
> For hands to hold and show the way
> As mothers often do.
>
> For precious little hands in which
> Great faith so abounds;
> For silly little hands that reach
> To touch a mother's frown.
>
> And thank you for Your guiding hand
> That leads me to the light;
> That lifts me when I stumble
> And points me to the right.
>
> As little hands reach out to me
> To show them what to do,
> I'm steadied, reassured and loved
> As I reach up to You.
