“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
