A Mother's Touch

She could open up the pantry with hardly nothing there
And like the loaves and fishes there'd be plenty left to share.
She could take a penny and stretch it to a dime.
She could kiss a fever and leave us feeling fine.

There is only one explanation
for these amazing transformations
How she could take so little and turn it into much.
'Cause God gave her a miracle when He gave her
A mother's touch.

Give her two yards of cotton and a little bit of lace
She'd turn a "flower on the wall" to the prettiest girl in the place.
She could take a young man's heart that was drowning in his tears
And bring back the sunshine with just a listening ear.

And of all a mother's hands can do
Nothing can compare
To the way she could reach heaven
And touch a child's heart with her prayers.

There is only on explanation
for these amazing transformations
How she could take so little and turn it into much.
'Cause God gave her a miracle when He gave her
A mother's touch.
