The Scriptures have much to say about the hand of God.  All creation was made by His hand.  Redemption comes because of His mighty righty hand.  He holds us in His hand and guides us by His hand.  But above all, the hands of God are the hands stretched out on the cross, pierced by nails, for our salvation.

In Isaiah 41:13, the Lord says, “For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.”  Our Lord calls to us in our fears and takes us by the hand.

“Hand in Hand” is the theme song for St. John’s Lutheran School in Napa, CA, for the 2022-2023 School year.  On the recording, the song is sung by students of St. John’s Lutheran School.
