First at the cradle, last at the cross
Faithful and blessed is she
Trusting the call of the angels of God
The mother of Jesus to be

Mary, with courage has shown
That love's strength can break through our own

She felt the weight of the nails
Pulling down, pulling everything away
Tears lined her cheeks and filled her eyes
But even tears couldn't make her child stay
Couldn't make her child stay

A Savior she gained, a child she lost
A mixture of glory and grief
She felt the weight of iniquity's cost
And warmed in its wondrous defeat
