One Pair of Hands

I came across this song a couple weeks ago when searching for something else.  This version of the song is sung by Elvis Presley. Others have sung it as well and it has a wonderful message.

One Pair of Hands
By Billie Campbell and Mann Kurtz

One pair of hands formed the mountains, one pair of hands formed the sea.

One pair of hands made the sun and the moon, every bird, every flower, every tree.

One pair of hands formed the valleys, the oceans, the river and the sands.

Those hands are so strong than when life goes wrong, put your faith into one pair of hands.

One pair of hands healed the sick. One pair of hands raised the dead.

One pair of hands calmed the raging storm and thousands of people were fed.

One pair of hands said I love you and those hands were nailed to a tree.

Those hands are so strong that when life goes wrong, put your faith into one pair of hands.

Those hands are so strong that when life goes wrong, put your faith into one pair of hands.

The words are simple and easy to understand.  The first verse in the Bible, Genesis, 1:1 tell us “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth”.  

The song further emphasizes God created the entirety of the world with His own hands out of His unconditional love for mankind. We should all be grateful and thank Him daily for this wonderful world in which we are privileged to live. Thanks be to God.

The following is a rendition of this beautiful song and I hope you are touched by it like I was.
