Lyrics

Daddy's Hands

I spent most of my life with a man
Who remembers and who understands
What life in a kneecap land
Felt like long ago
Standing steady and six feet tall
I'd forget that I was small
I rose above it all
Riding in Daddy's hands

Chorus:

And Daddy's hands were always big and strong
They helped me separate the right from wrong
And always left me feeling safe and warm
And loved in my Daddy's hands

Sittin' on his shoulders so broad
I rode, unafraid to fall
Not from where I could see it all
Safe in my Daddy's hands
And every time life knocked me down
He'd help me make it to a higher ground
Defeat never really hung around
Thanks to my Daddy's hands

Chorus

Looking back now I understand
How life with a special man
It helped to make me everything I am
Thank God for my Daddy's hands
Cause even now you see it helps to know
There is comfort in just going home
Reaching out and feeling love take hold
Safe in my Daddy's hands

Chorus

And Daddy's hands are still so big and strong
They help me separate the right from wrong
And always leave me feeling safe and warm
And loved in my Daddy's hands
There's love in my Daddy's hands
I'm loved in my Daddy's hands
