Mother Of The Crying



Mother Of The Crying 
By Paul McCann
.
Mother of the crying .
I place into your loving arms
the tears that fall upon the face
of those in fear .


Mother of the crying
I fall on my knees and ask
for compassion for those
who cry with no one to hear .


Mother of the crying
for all those who weep for justice
may they find an answer to resolve
what is wrong .


Mother of the crying
listen to the sounds of those who cry
and suffer in pain and help them to be strong .


Mother of the crying
help those who don’t find
an answer to prayer
and are frustrated to understand why .


Mother of the crying
comfort those who mourn in grief
and be with them in their loss
whenever they would cry .


Mother of the crying
defend those who are bullied and harassed
by proud and arrogant people each day .


Mother of the crying
be there at the hour of our death
to take all our fear and
wipe all of our tears away .
