Lyrics:
Grandma's hands clapped in church on Sunday morning
Grandma's hands played a tambourine so well
Grandma's hands used to issue out a warning
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
Might be snakes there in that grass,"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands sooth the local unwed mother
Grandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swell
Grandma's hands used to lift her face and tell her
She'd say, "Baby Grandma understands
That you really loved that man
Put yourself in Jesus' hands."
Grandma's Hands
Grandma's hands used to hand me piece of candy
Grandma's hands picked me up each time I fell
Grandma's hands, boy they really came in handy
She'd say, " Mattie don't you whip that boy
What you want to spank him for?
He didn't drop no apple core,"
But I don't have Grandma anymore
If I get to heaven I'll look for
Grandma's hands

I am 70 soon to be 71 and this song reminds me of grandmother wholehartedly

I can tell you to this day there's no better person to raise a grandchild than their grandmother, my grandma would whoop your hind end, but she would love you to death. She was born in 1911 , her and Grandpa adopted me when I was 10 years old. Mama and Papa my two best friends, with unconditional love they loved me , no one could ever replace either one. Granny died in 82 and papa died in 96. Me being 61 I still miss them everyday. May they rest in peace together with Jesus, amen.

Grandma's hands prayed , cooked , gave discipline , carried , fought , massaged , braided , platted , planted , loved , and provided anything else her grandchildren needed !

My Granny is a 102 and praying she'll see 103 in September. Had a hand in raising all her grandkids. Those hands still clapping in church every Sunday and highschool Football on Friday. Enjoy them while they are here. They are such Blessings. Love you GRANDMA D. 😘

If there ever was an angel on earth it was my maternal grandmother

Unfortunately my grandma was not a good person, on the contrary my grandpa was the best person in the world I've ever known I hope he's in a good place R.I.P 1994

My Granny raised me. God was so good to let me keep her until I was 50 and had several grandchildren of my own. I was beyond blessed. God is good.
