Daddy's Hands Lyrics - Singles - Holly Dunn

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 callouses and lines 

Years of work and worry 

had left their mark behind 

I remember Daddy's hands, 

how they held my Mama 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 cryin' 

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 cryin' 

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 cryin' 

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
