Lyrics:

Many Hands – by Sammie Haynes

There are many hands for working

Many hands for play
Many hands for pats on the back to help us through the day.
There are many hands for holding
For picking plums and pears
But it only takes one helping hand
To show someone you care.

Wave a wave, (Wave a wave)

Snap, snap, snap, (Snap, snap, snap)
Wings of birds, (Wings of birds)
Clap, clap, clap!( Clap, clap, clap!)

There are many hands for drawing & playing instruments

Many hands for making pies and hands for pitching tents
There are hands for helping neighbors
Hands for sewing clothes
Hands for playing basketball
And to help you blow your nose!

Wave a wave, (Wave a wave)….

Snap, snap, snap, (Snap, snap, snap)
Wings of birds, (Wings of birds)
Clap, clap, clap!( Clap, clap, clap!)

There are hands for scratching itches

Hands for petting dogs
Hands for washing dishes
And hands for catching frogs
There are hands to say “I love you”
For those who might not hear
Hands to fold and offer thanks
With joy year after year.

Chorus
