| I remember Daddy's hands folded silently in prayer And reachin out to hold me when I had a nightmare You could read quite a story in the callouses and lines Years of work and worry had left their mark behind I remember Daddy's hands how they held my Momma tight And patted my back, for somethin done right There are things that I've forgotten that I loved about the man But I'll always remember, the love in Daddy's hands Daddy's hands, were soft and kind when I was crying Daddy's hands, were hard as steel when I done wrong Daddy's hands weren't always gentle But I've come to understand There was always love in Daddy's hands I remember Daddy's hands workin till they bled Sacrificed unselfishly just to keep us all fed If I could do things over, I'd live my life again And never take for granted, the love in Daddy's hands Daddy's hands, were soft and kind when I was cryin Daddy's hands, were hard as steel when I done wrong Daddy's hands weren't always gentle But I've come to understand There was always love in Daddy's hands Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I done wrong Daddy's hands weren't always gentle But I've come to understand There was always love.... in Daddy's hands. |
