Father's Hand

Even there shall Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand shall hold me. Psalm 139:10

THE FATHER'S HAND

O blessed are the little hands

of children of all race

They're reaching out to understand

what life is like in this maze

Their hands touch your and my life

as they seek to find their way

They get confused by all the strife

as this world is in disarray

Reaching out when they're in pain

for comfort by a stronger hand

leading the child to a higher plain

of God's peace, much needed in this land

Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up Thine hand: forget not the humble. Psalm 10:12

For He is our God; and we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand. Psalm 95:7

My times are in Thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. Psalm 31:15

Even so must we reach out to God

for answers to our life's need

The soul may be a target of a plot

but God's hand saves from defeat

Our enemies are not up to par

against the power of our Lord

Satan may drag us into war

It's God's victory we can afford

The Father's hand is always here

leading His children on their way

His hand protects at front and rear

as we walk, profess Him and pray

O sing unto the Lord a new song; for He hath done marvelous things: His right hand, and His holy arm, hath gotten Him the victory. Psalm 98:1

The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek Him. Ezra 8:22 b  

All they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them, and healed them. Luke 4:40

                          ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ 

His hands touch us when we're sick

according to His precious word

We'll sense the Holy Spirit's click

as we seek direction of the Lord

There's pleasure in a touch by His hand

bringing peace, salvation and gladness

A stroke of love, one can't comprehend

restores the soul from sadness

When your life is in God's care

He'll hold you tight when you get low

He'll take you out of satan's snare

Father's hand will never let you go

Thou wilt show me the path of life: in Thy presence is fullness of joy; at Thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 16:11

Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither His ear heavy, that it cannot hear. Isaiah 59:1

And the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders. Deuteronomy 26:8

Holding me in His hands!
