HIS LITTLE HAND
IN MINE
A new little life at our house,
Complete with eternal soul -
Someone to cuddle and play with,
New reason to set higher goals.
In the past, I might have been careless.
Now I ask for guidance divine.
For in my mind, I've a picture
Of his little hand in mine.
He'll follow, I know, all my footsteps
And be known by the names that I wear.
So, I'll make my decisions in earnest
And I'll choose with still greater care.
For, I know he'll copy my motions
And he'll know when I step out of line.
God, help me live so I'm worthy
Of his little hand in mine!
It's only a thin silver ribbon.
This life so quickly can pass!
Just what I teach him of Jesus
Will for all of eternity last!
Lord, help me keep my affection,
And his, attached firmly to Thine -
And walk toward the promise of Heaven
With his little hand in mine!
