The Master's Touch

Marty Robbins · Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs/My Woman, My Wo [1989]

(Ed Crowe)



Tonight a hand has touched me, was the Master

I thought that in this world it couldn't be

My heart, it paused a moment then beat faster

In the chapel as he gave her love to me.



Tonight a hand has touched me, was the Master

In fondest dreams I knew it couldn't be

Through misty eyes I saw an angel smiling

In the chapel as he gave her love to me.



I trembleed and placed my ring upon her finger

In fond embrace we kissed to seal our love

A hallowed light reflected teardrops falling

As scared vows were echoed from above.



Tonight a hand has touched me, was the Master

In fondest dreams I knew it couldn't be

Through misty eyes I saw an angel smiling

In the chapel as he gave her love to me...
