“Holy Hands (Hey Mom)”
[Verse 1]
There’s a silence in the house I grew up in
Like a prayer still hanging in the air
Every wall holds a piece of who I was
Every shadow says you were there
I was reckless with a heart half-broken
Running wild through the devil’s land
But you stood like a church in a storm, mom
With forgiveness in your hands
[Pre-Chorus]
I was lost in the dark, couldn’t find my name
But you called me home through the weight and shame
[Chorus]
Hey mom… you were holy ground
Where my sins fell off and my soul slowed down
When I was burning like a house of flame
You were water calling out my name
Hey mom… I was too far gone
But your love kept saying I belong
Now every step I take, I understand
I was saved by your holy hands
[Verse 2]
There were nights I swore I’d never see morning
Buried deep in the wreck I made
Every promise I broke like thunder
Every truth that I tried to evade
But you never turned your eyes from me
Never spoke like I was beyond repair
You just held onto hope like a lifeline, mom
Like you knew I’d meet you there
[Pre-Chorus]
I was drowning in all I became
But you breathed me back through the guilt and pain
[Chorus]
Hey mom… you were holy ground
Where my sins fell off and my soul slowed down
When I was burning like a house of flame
You were water calling out my name
Hey mom… I was too far gone
But your love kept saying I belong
Now every step I take, I understand
I was saved by your holy hands
[Bridge – stripped, emotional rise]
If grace has a face, I’ve seen it in yours
In the lines that life left, in the love you swore
And if God ever spoke, I heard it then
In your voice saying “try again”
[Final Chorus – bigger, more raw]
Hey mom… you were holy ground
When the world gave up, you still held me down
Through the fire, the fall, the worst of me
You were mercy when I couldn’t be
Hey mom… now I finally see
Every piece of your heart in me
And if I stand at all, it’s ‘cause you began
Every good in me… came from your hands
[Outro]
There’s a light in me I couldn’t understand…
Turns out it was yours, mom… all along
