These Hands Of Mine

 

There are many things in life

 

 

 

 

 

 

That I cannot understand

But the good Lord blessed the labor

Of these two hard working hands

And when all my toil is over

And I’m laid beneath the sod

Then these hands of mine

Shall rest til I see God.

Chorus

There’ll be a welcome there for me

Far beyond the crystal sea

And I’ll hold the hands

That Calvary’s nails have scarred

Then I’ll enter through the gates

Walk on streets the saints have trod

Then these hands of mine

Shall touch the hand of God.

Many times these hands have failed Him

But he’s kept me by His grace

Even though sometimes in kindness

He’s applied the chastening rod

But I’m going home to heaven 

And I’ll see Him face to face

Then these hands of mine

Shall touch the hand of God.

Chorus

There’ll be a welcome there for me

Far beyond the crystal sea

And I’ll hold the hands

That Calvary’s nails have scarred

Then I’ll enter through the gates

Walk on streets the saints have trod

Then these hands of mine

Shall touch the hand of God.
