Lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics!

I remember daddy’s hands
Folded silently in prayer
And reaching out to hold me when I had a nightmare
You could read quite a story in the caluses 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 something 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’d 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 working til 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 crying
Daddy’s hands
Were hard as steel when I’d 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 crying
Daddy’s hands
Were hard as steel when I’d done wrong
Daddy’s hands
Weren’t always gentle but I’ve come to understand
There was always love in daddy’s hands
