He's Got the Whole World in His Hands

This negro spiritual is timeless and can be used to help teach about creation and God's love.

There are many other verses that can be added and the song can be adjusted to many different celebrations. I have a very vivid memory of a concert my mother took me to where Marian Anderson sang this song. Beautiful!
