Come to the Cross

Come to the cross, come stand by me,
I who am your Mother love you tenderly
I see your tears,
I know your pain,
In my pierced heart, I felt the same
Sorrowful Mother, will you take away my fears,
My concerns for my family, our heartaches of these years,
Sometimes I want to turn away
Then I hear you gently say,
Come to the cross, come stand by me
I who am your mother, love you tenderly
I see your tears, I know your pain,
In my pierced heart I felt the same
Sorrowful mother, will you take me by the hand
Give me courage and wisdom
To grow and understand, this journey of love requires one thing
I surrender my life, and so I sing
I'll come to the cross, I'll stand by you,
I who I'm your child, tenderly love you too
I'll dry your tears,
I'll share your pain, in my own heart I'll feel the same,
I'll come to the cross
