Tired Hands - 1926

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 26 Sept 2001

In my heart there's someone
who never can be replaced.
In my mind a picture
that never can be erased:

Tired hands that guided me
since childhood days
Tired hands that loved
and understood always
Tired steps that I can't number,
Tired eyes that knew no slumber.
Tired lips too tired for her rosary
but not too tired to pray for me.
God gave her to you,
need I tell you who
rock'd your cradle with those tired hands?

Tired hands that guided me
since childhood days
Tired hands that loved
and understood always
Tired steps that I can't number,
Tired eyes that knew no slumber.
Tired lips too tired for her rosary
but not too tired to pray for me.
God gave her to you,
need I tell you who
rock'd your cradle with those tired hands?

She was just an angel
that heaven sent down to me.
And I know for ever
I'll treasure this memory.

Tired hands that guided me
since childhood days
Tired hands that loved
and understood always
Tired steps that I can't number,
Tired eyes that knew no slumber.
Tired lips too tired for her rosary
but not too tired to pray for me.
God gave her to you,
need I tell you who
rock'd your cradle with those tired hands?

Tired hands that guided me
since childhood days
Tired hands that loved
and understood always
Tired steps that I can't number,
Tired eyes that knew no slumber.
Tired lips too tired for her rosary
but not too tired to pray for me.
God gave her to you,
need I tell you who
rock'd your cradle with those tired hands?
