By Request, ‘One Pair of Hands’

(We’re not really an hour later. Daylight Savings Time has made everybody late.)

Requested by Erlene: One Pair of Hands, sung by Carroll Roberson. He means the pair of hands that created the gorgeous background scenery in this video.

Thanks to Erlene for this hymn request: One Pair of Hands , sung by Carroll Roberson at Glacier National Park, Montana.

I had a terrible night; but this hymn is a good way to start the day.

Bonus Hymn, ‘One Pair of Hands’–By Elvis

Did you know Elvis Presley also sang a lot of gospel? And sang it very well, too.

Requested by Teddy, here is Elvis singing One Pair of Hands. 

A voice like his doesn’t come along very often.

Ai-ya! I’m running so late today, gotta catch up!

Here’s a hymn requested by Erlene–One Pair of Hands, sung by Carroll Roberson. Elvis Presley also sang it. Would any of you like me to post that, too? (I don’t feel like writing politics today.)

We have a hymn request from Erlene: One Pair of Hands, sung by Carroll Roberson. Elvis Presley sang it, too–but if it’s Carroll Roberson you ask for, it’s Carroll Roberson you get. Plus exquisite background footage.

Prayer Request: For Erlene

We know she loves these hymns by Carroll Roberson. This one’s for you, Erlene.

(I’m not authorized to do this, so I hope it doesn’t get me into trouble. But here goes–.)

Our esteemed colleague and friend, Erlene, has been with this blog since it started in 2010; and as most of you know, she suffered a major stroke some months ago. Since then her road to recovery has been difficult. Meanwhile, she prays for her family and friends, her country and her church.

I ask that we redouble our prayers for her. She’s an integral part of our fellowship, and God know how it hurts us to lose people we love.

So please, Lord, please, bless your servant Erlene and grant her recovery. She has been your good and faithful servant, and still has much to teach us. Protect her and heal her, Father: in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Requested by Erlene: One Pair of Hands, sung by Carroll Roberson. Background sets by God the Father, the work of His hands.

Erlene requested this one–One Pair of Hands, sung by Carroll Roberson. Elvis Presley also sang it, but we do try to give you what you ask for.

Erlene asked for this one–One Pair of Hands, by Carroll Roberson.

There’s folklore out there that says this was also a “lost song” of Elvis Presley’s that was never recorded: not too hard to imagine that might be so. Easy to imagine Elvis singing it–which may be because of the way Carroll Roberson sings it.

Background sets hand-made by God the Father.

One Pair of Hands, sung by Carroll Roberson–think about this, boys ‘n’ girls. The hands that created this world are the only hands strong and skilled enough to regenerate it. The only hands strong enough to pull us out of the pit we’ve fallen into. And the only hands loving and wise enough to cleanse us.
