The Hands That First Held Mary's
Child—Dan Forrest. An incredible text tells
the extraordinary story of a Child, whose
journey begins in Bethlehem, with the
weathered hands of a carpenter holding
his newborn son. "The hands that first held
Mary's child were hard from working wood.
From boards they sawed and planed and
filed and splinters they withstood. This day
they gripped no tool of steel, they drove no
iron nail, but cradled from the head to heel
our Lord, newborn and frail."
