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."
