The Hands that Raised Us

The Hands That Raised Us

Verse 1

They built the roads we’re walking on,

Sang us gentle bedtime songs,

Worked their days, their hearts so true,

Every step we take is thanks to you.

Verse 2

Now the years have slowed their pace,

Lines of wisdom mark their face,

They gave us all, they gave us life,

It’s our turn now to stand by their side.

Chorus

We will hold the hands that raised us,

Lift the ones who carried love,

With the same care they once gave us,

We will rise and lift them up.

For the hearts that kept us strong,

It is time to pass it on,

They deserve our gentle song,

The hands that raised us all along.

Verse 3

Every wrinkle tells a story,

Every scar a gift of glory,

They have walked through joy and pain,

So our lives could bloom again.

Chorus

We will hold the hands that raised us,

Lift the ones who carried love,

With the same care they once gave us,

We will rise and lift them up.

For the hearts that kept us strong,

It is time to pass it on,

They deserve our gentle song,

The hands that raised us all along.

Bridge

Don’t forget the love they gave,

Every sacrifice they made,

Now the circle turns around,

It’s our love that must be found.

Final Chorus

We will hold the hands that raised us,

Lift the ones who carried love,

With the same care they once gave us,

We will rise and lift them up.

For the hearts that kept us strong,

It is time to pass it on,

They deserve our gentle song,

The hands that raised us all along..

End.
