But the most important one, Mary Mother of Jesus Why? As I follow the footsteps of my son My heart breaks at every word said against Him Why? Why? As my tears run down my face I vision, tenderly cradling him in my arms when he was young Why? Why? Does it have to be this way? They only loved and worshiped Him yesterday What has happened in just a day to make everyone hate him so? Why? Why? As I take every step behind him watching him suffer so My legs want to fold underneath me of the pain in my heart for my son For every blow he takes, for every time he falls Why? Why? My eyes swell and my nose runs from the suffering that my son is enduring and I am not allowed to get near him to comfort him in my arms Why? Why? Please, let his suffering end Endure and rise again 3/21/2015 Mary, witness to suffering with love and faith in "The Passion of the Christ"
