So lovingly they took Him down
His lifeless Body with thorns ~ a crown
His Mother wept each tear was measured
Her Child, Her life so much she treasured
 
His Body filled with scars and scorn
The plight she knew since He was born
Yes surely she did feel the pain
Of every welt upon His frame
The tears she wept pooled on His chest
Her heart so broken as she wept
Such sadness she was sure to bear
Her Gentle Jesus lying there
 
 
His precious body now she holds
Her little Child in arms now cold
Weeping tears upon His Face
She holds Him in her last embrace
 
Whispers to Him very low
Mother's here and yes I know
You've taken all the sins away
You gave Your Love this darkest day
 
No Mother's heart can ponder this
With blessedness her softest kiss
Upon Our Hearts a Cross of Gold
The Greatest Story Ever told.
