Son of Mary

Mary, Mary, don't you weep
Angels guard you while you sleep
Mary, Mary, don't you cry
God will grant you a faultless Child

Now for a while she fled away
Beneath the palm she hid
When she returned they saw the Child
But doubted what she said
They would have stoned her there and then
But for a strange event
The Baby spoke, that made the folk
Believe her innocent

Mary, Mary, don't you feel
Angels guide you everywhere
Mary, Mary, don't be afraid
God will bless you and show you the way

Now time moved the Heavens
Through the Spirit He did grow
The books of law and wisdom
God taught him to know
He healed the sick and cured the hearts
Gave sight to the blind
By God's degree he raised the dead
Though many still deny

Though only few did follows Him
Amongst Israel sons
He never stopped a calling
The Lord thy God is one
Some disbelievers had a plan
Would nail him to his death
God made it look as if they did
But raised Him up instead

Mary, Mary, don't you weep
Heaven guards him while you sleep
Mary, Mary, time will come
Death won't touch him 'til His work is done

Now just before he lifted up He have the world the news
That God would send a comforter
With the spirt of truth
And He would be His witness and deliver God's word
While many people know Him, still many haven't heard

Mary, Mary, don't you weep
Angels guard you while you sleep
Mary, Mary, don't feel low
He'll return on the day that God says so

Mary, Mary
Mary, Mary
Mary, Mary
