Beautiful Little Hands




"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb a reward."
Psalm 127:3


Beautiful the little hands,

That fulfill the Lord's commands;

Beautiful the little eyes,

Kindled with light from the skies.






Beautiful, beautiful little hands,

That fulfill the Lord's commands;

Beautiful, beautiful little eyes,

Kindled with light from the skies.


All the little hands were made

Jesus' precious cause to aid;

All the little hearts to beat

Warm in His service so sweet.







Beautiful, beautiful little hands,

That fulfill the Lord's commands;

Beautiful, beautiful little eyes,

Kindled with light from the skies.


All the little lips should pray

To the Savior every day;

All the little feet should go

Swift on His errands below.








Beautiful, beautiful little hands,

That fulfill the Lord's commands;

Beautiful, beautiful little eyes,

Kindled with light from the skies.


What your little hands can do,

That the Lord intends for you;

Make that thing your first delight,

Do it to Him with your might.







Beautiful, beautiful little hands,

That fulfill the Lord's commands;

Beautiful, beautiful little eyes,

Kindled with light from the skies.



"And God said, "Let Us, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
make mankind in Our own image, after Our likeness...
So God created man in His own image, in the image
and likeness God created him; male and female,
He created them."
Genesis 1:26,27
