Mother Of Sorrows

Mother Of Sorrows

By Paul McCann

Mother Of Sorrows, Mother of mine ,

Mother I ask for you to incline ,

Your attention to my prayers today ,

as I kneel before you everyday .

Mother of sorrows eternally,
I’m thankful that you listen to me .

When I am hurt and struck with pain ,
you’re always there to help me again .

Mother of sorrows , you know of loss ,  of having loved and paying the cost .

I pray heal the hurt deep in my heart  ,
ask your son Jesus where do I start .

Mother of sorrows , I hurt within ,
Is it wrong to love , is it a sin ?

Should I even try to love at all ,
and risk being hurt and take the fall .

Mother of sorrows , I humbly pray ,
Help me to love and be loved today .

Knock down the barriers I’ve built up ,
If love’s a chalice please fill my cup .

Mother of sorrows , restore in me the confidence lost and let me see ,

Beyond the sorrow where I am free ,
To love and live and to be happy .
