Steinman My mother's hands are lovelier than any hands I know. Although they bear some scars and cuts, I am still thinking so. There may be whiter skin than theirs, and fingers shaped more fine, But of all hands on earth, give me the hands of Mother mine! They do for me what none would do of all the hands on earth; They soothe me in my sufferings and guide me in my mirth. They've worked for me full many a day and many a lonely night; They show me things that I should see—yea, all that's true and right. They tuck me in my bed at night in such a tender way! They've taught me how to fold my hands when we together pray. What Mother's hands do mean to me can never half be told, But this I know, they're lovelier than diamonds and gold! But the thing that I will miss the most, Are my Mom's hands folded in prayer for me, 'cause no one can pray for you like your mother can. Sharon Combs
