Lyrics:
1. Take my hands and make them as your own,
and use them for your kingdom here on earth.
Consecrate them to your care,
anoint them for your service where
you may need your gospel to be sown.
2. Take my hands, they speak now for my heart,
and by their actions they will show their love.
Guard them on their daily course,
be their strength and guiding force
to ever serve the Trinity above.
3. Take my hands, I give them to you, Lord.
Prepare them for the service of your name.
Open them to human need
and by their love they’ll sow your seed
so all may know the hope and love you gave.
