Sweet Mary Cried

Mary, the Son of God is sleeping in your bed

It's a holy mighty crown that awaits His head

But that's not who sweet Mary sees at all

She sees a precious baby lying in a manger stall

Oh but He deserves more than this

This child who's know God's kiss

And Mary, sweet Mary cries

And prays inside her heart for God to dry her eyes

And Mary, she understands That we're all in God's hands

Every mother, every child and sweet Mary cries

When the boy became a man they took Him away

He who was without sin was made to pay

When Mary looks upon the cross

She sees that precious baby lying in a manger stall

Oh but when she sees His face

Her heart can't help but break

With all this celebrating we get lost along the way

When we forget the reason why we have a Christmas Day

And Mary, sweet Mary cries

And prays inside her heart for God to dry her eyes

And Mary, you understands That we're all in God's hands

Every mother, every child and sweet Mary cries
