THE MASTER'S HANDS
When you look out the window and all you see appears to mirror what's inside,
When there is no refuge from the storms that rage in your mind,
When the rain falling outside seems to hit harder than the tears that you hide,
When you wonder if the future is any different than the past you've left behind,
There is hope in the Master's hands.
When you cannot seem to continue on this rugged road,
When there is no place left in which to stand,
When the weight of life becomes an unbearable load,
When your feet feel like they're stuck in sinking sand,
There is hope in the Master's hands.
When you falter and when you fall,
When brokenness is all that you've come to know,
When there seems to be no point to it all,
When you have nowhere left to go,
There is hope in the Master's hands.
There is hope in those hands that bled,
There is hope in those hands that were nailed down,
There is hope in those hands that an old rugged cross once held,
There is hope in those hands that were bound,
The Master died for you.

Poetry: In God's hands
by Kathy Ballew
Why don’t you say, you’ve had a bad day
When it’s true, that you often do?
Why can’t you tell, you’re
I could fret and worry just about every day
But instead I choose just to kneel down and pray
I could let my anger build
by April Self
The hands that shaped the world's creation,
the giver of my writing inspiration.
His strong fingers that soothe a worried
In God's hand my life is held,
With every breath that I take.
From the very start of day,
When I begin to awake.
I know
by Tammy A
I stand before you, Lord
In Your presence I should feel shame
Knowing I fall short of your glory
That I have strayed too far
