Lyrics

Most mornings she's up before the sun even thinks about rising

She wakes up early, before sunrise

Gets breakfast going and the laundry out for drying

Starts preparing breakfast and doing laundry

Makes a cup of coffee, finds her favorite front porch spot

Makes coffee and enjoys her favorite spot on the front porch

And has a few minutes with the Lord before the crazy starts

Takes a few minutes for prayer before the busy day begins

She keeps this family running like a well-oiled machine

Efficiently manages and runs the family

And never asks for anything

Selflessly handles responsibilities without asking for anything


It's not just the boards in the floors, the hinges on the doors

Emphasizes that it's not just the physical elements but more

The nails in the walls that keep this place from falling

Describes the structural components that maintain the house

It's not just the windows in the rooms, the shingles on the roof

Highlights various aspects that contribute to the house's integrity

The bricks and stones that give this place its bones

Mentions the essential elements that form the foundation of the house

She might deny it, but we all know better

Suggests that despite denial, everyone recognizes her role

She holds this house together

Affirms that she is the one holding the house together


She's always got a shoulder when you need one to lean on

Provides emotional support and is there when needed

And you can bet she'll stay up late waiting for you to come home

Expresses dedication by waiting up late for family members

She's a wife and a mother and everything in between

Defines her roles as a wife and mother

She makes it all look easy, though it's harder than it seems

Acknowledges that her tasks are challenging, though she makes them seem easy


It's not just the boards in the floors, the hinges on the doors

Reiterates the importance of various structural components

The nails in the walls that keep this place from falling

Points out elements that prevent the house from collapsing

It's not just the windows in the rooms, the shingles on the roof

Enumerates different features contributing to the house's stability

The bricks and stones that give this place its bones

Refers to fundamental elements that form the essence of the house

She might deny it, but we all know better

Repeats the notion that despite denial, her crucial role is evident

She holds this house together

Reiterates that she is the one holding the house together


For her it's second nature, never feels like a heavy load

Implies that her responsibilities come naturally and don't feel burdensome

Even when the foundation cracks and the weeds start to grow

Even in challenging times, she manages the house gracefully


It's not just the boards in the floors, the hinges on the doors

Reiterates the significance of structural components

The nails in the walls that keep this place from falling

Specifies elements that prevent the house from falling

It's not just the windows in the rooms, the shingles on the roof

Enumerates features contributing to the house's stability

The bricks and stones that give this place its bones

Refers to fundamental elements forming the essence of the house

She might deny it, but we all know better

Repeats the idea that despite denial, her crucial role is evident

She holds this house together

Reiterates that she is the one holding the house together

She holds this house together

Repeats the affirmation that she holds the house together

She holds this house together
