What do you think of this poem I will be including in the Christmas cards We send?

Question

In His Hands
The hands that made the world and gave the sun and moon their light are the tiney Hands of a baby born one cold December night....
The Hands that stilled the wind and tamed the fury of the sea are the caloused Hands of a carpenter who lived in poverty....
The Hands that held the power to break the binding chains of sin are the gentle Hands that washed the feet of tired and dusty men.......
The Hands that cleansed the leper, healed the blind and raised the dead are the praying Hands of one who cried,"Not My will, but Thine instead....."
The Hands that shaped the universe and flung the stars in space are the nail-pierced Hands of a dying man who suffered in our place....
The Hands of our Creator, Lord and King of Heaven above, are the Savior's Hands, forever reaching out to us with love.

Hatefulness> lonelyness> bitterness.
How sad!

Answer 1

Kind of long, but you obviously have a lot of love and respect for the Hands of Jesus. It comes out in the poem really clear.

You did misspell "tiny" and I believe "calloused" has two "l's". It doesn't really rhyme, but you can work on that, I guess. Just refine it a little, and I think that the many you send it to will treasure it.

Answer 2

Perfect for the season

Answer 3

I love it-- just make sure, if you are not the author, to attain copyright permission to include it in your Christmas cards.

Answer 4

I guess if your friends are all scary christians, it's great. If I were to receive this poem, I would be completely grossed out. However, your beliefs are yours, and thankfully not mine.
