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 chose to forgive
And never despise

How beautiful
How beautiful
How beautiful is the Body of Christ

And as He laid 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
