My Little Hands

My little hands play patty-cake
they peek-a-boo and wave.
They catch me while I learn to walk
and splash me as I bathe.
My little hands reach up to you,
for hugs before I sleep,
and fold together when I pray
the Lord my soul to keep.
My little hands are tiny now
but yours will serve to guide me
And when I'm grown I'll still reach out
and know you're right beside me.

**

Sometimes you get discouraged,
because I am so small
And leave my little fingerprints
On furniture and walls.
But everyday I'm growing
And soon will be so tall
That all these little fingerprints
Will be difficult to recall.
So here's a little handprint
That you can put away
So you will know how my fingers looked
On this special day.

**

Oh child you are of my dreams
Shining star of my day.
My universe you are or so it seems;
Be at peace, I pray.
Oh dear one you are my prize
Fusing joy with every day.
Fulfilled and blessed are the wise
May you too be, I pray.What will they do each day?
Though all around may roar like thunder
May you be true to yourself, I pray.

When I’m big you won’t remember
the mud I tracked on stairs.
Instead I hope that you will hear
my laugh that eased your cares.
The smudges that I leave on walls
will someday fade away.
But the memories of my first steps
will be cherished every day.
As for these two handprints,
someday you will be gladthat didn’t make you mad.

**

This hand I hold is small right now.
Your tiny fingers barely encircling mine.
But you will grow so quickly.
Soon your hand will reach out to me
And I will steady your first steps.
A few more years fly by
Our hands are linked as we walk
To your classroom on the first day of school.And now your hand reaches out
For a diploma – for your beloved –
for a baby of your own
Whose tiny fingers barely encircle yours.
