HERE I AM

Hands To Bless U

Lord here I am a child
That you carefully formed anew
As I go about to do your work
Small favors I ask of you

Take my hands and direct them
Make them instruments of Your peace
Give them strength to hold the helpless
As you safely held on to me

Then take my mind and fill it
With wisdom I've never known
That I may teach your people
And help to guide them home

Please mold and shape my heart
With Your everlasting love
So I may spread to the world
What you are truly made of

And lastly Lord guide my feet
As I follow in Your path
So my reward will to be with you
As I see your face at last!
