Verse 1 There was always supper on the table Somehow she made enough when times got tight Worked all day and still stayed able To hold this family close every night She prayed over us before we left home Through every hard year we weren’t alone Looking back now I understand There was strength in Momma’s hands Chorus Momma’s hands held this family together Through hard times and stormy weather Wiped our tears and lifted us up When life got hard and days got rough She gave her whole life for the ones she loved Thanking God while never asking much Yeah everything I am today began With faith and love in Momma’s hands Verse 2 She taught us right from wrong growing up Said “work hard and trust in God above” Every wrinkle tells a story now Of sacrifices we didn’t know about She carried burdens she never showed Somehow still lit up our home And if Heaven’s built for hearts that stand There’s a place there for Momma’s hands Chorus Momma’s hands held this family together Through hard times and stormy weather Wiped our tears and lifted us up When life got hard and days got rough She gave her whole life for the ones she loved Thanking God while never asking much Yeah everything I am today began With faith and love in Momma’s hands Bridge Now I see more clearly with every year Why her prayers still echo here Through every mile and every road I’ve ran I still feel the strength in Momma’s hands Final Chorus Momma’s hands built this family strong Taught us where we all belong Through every trial and every storm She was the fire that kept us warm And someday when my running days all end I hope I see her smile again Cause the greatest blessing God ever planned Was growing up loved by Momma’s hands
