In Your Hands

    Description of In Your Hands


    A black mother expresses the many hopes and dreams she has for her child in this powerful picture book masterpiece that’s perfect for gift-giving.

    When you are a newborn,
    I hold your hand and study your face.
    I cradle you as you drift to sleep.
    But I know that I will not always
    hold your hand;
    not the older you get.
    Then, I will hold you in my heart
    And hope that God holds you in his hands.
