How Beautiful
by Twila Paris
How Beautiful the hands that served
The Wine and the Bread and the sons of the earth
How beautiful the feet that walked
The long dusty roads and the hill to the cross
How Beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ
How Beautiful the heart that bled
That took all my sin and bore it instead
How beautiful the tender eyes
That choose to forgive and never despise
How beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ
And as He lay down His life
We offer this sacrifice
That we will live just as He died
Willing to pay the price
Willing to pay the price
How Beautiful the radiant bride
Who waits for her Groom with His light in her eyes
How Beautiful when humble hearts give
The fruit of pure lives so that others may live
How beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ
How beautiful the feet that bring
The sound of good news and the love of the King
How Beautiful the hands that serve
The wine and the bread and the sons of the Earth
How Beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ
What inspires you?

I have this songtrack. It's lovely, isn't it? I have loved it from the moment I first heard it at communion one time at a Baptist Youth Convention. I'm singing in church on Sunday; It's a week early for an Easter song, but I don't sing at Easter...
Hi April,
It is a lovely song. I am learning how to play it on my guitar... Maybe you don't want to sing this one this week...??? *hint hint*
I may have just changed my mind and put my this selection on hold for a future, yet equally opportune, moment.
I wonder why that is? *giggle*
April, I think that is a GRAND idea...hehe
