A Mother's Touch

A mother's touch can heal
The wounded worried soul
Her influence is real
She has a sacred role

To love, teach, nurture,
Watch over and nourish
She frames our future
Through her, hope can flourish

Are We Not All Mothers? "No woman who understands the gospel would ever say, “I am just a mother,” for mothers heal the souls of men." —Sheri L. Dew, "Are We Not All Mothers?" Topics: Mothers [Verse 1] A mother's touch can heal The wounded, worried soul She sees you when you break And makes the heavy whole Her hands are steady maps In the dark, in the rain She lifts the fallen parts And calls you back again [Pre-Chorus] To love, teach, nurture She carries that flame Watch over and nourish She does it in your name [Chorus] A mother's touch can heal A mother's touch can heal Her influence is real She frames our future Through her, hope can flourish Through her, hope can flourish She has a sacred role A mother's touch can heal [Verse 2] She bends to tie the knot She wipes the tears away She knows the quiet words That make the storm obey From first steps to first scars She stays through every mile And in her simplest glance You learn to stand and smile [Pre-Chorus] To love, teach, nurture She carries that flame Watch over and nourish She does it in your name [Chorus] A mother's touch can heal A mother's touch can heal Her influence is real She frames our future Through her, hope can flourish Through her, hope can flourish She has a sacred role A mother's touch can heal [Bridge] When my world runs thin And my courage feels small I hear her voice within Like a steady call If I ever rise If I ever bloom There's a kind of grace That began with you [Final Chorus] A mother's touch can heal A mother's touch can heal Her influence is real She frames our future Through her, hope can flourish Through her, hope can flourish She has a sacred role A mother's touch can heal
