Mother Mary singing about the death of her Son on the cross.
SON OF MY HEART
Written by Peter Merz, Mark E. Ellis, and Steve Christy
(Performed by Tiffany Casto)
1. I held You in my arms when You were a Baby
You were my precious bundle of joy
And Son, the things You did then still amaze me
You were my special little boy
And as you grew into a Man
And found You're way
Nothing impossible for You
The Hope of Israel, the prophet said
Healed the sick, raised the dead
Ch. Son of my heart, You will always be
Oh, You are God's precious Gift to me
But as I watch You on the cross
I feel a sword pierce my soul
And as You die for this world
Why can't they see through a mother's eyes
That it's my Baby that they've crucified?
2. It feels like this whole world has gone crazy
You came in love, but they felt only fear
Now I can only watch as they murder my Baby
Nail You to the cross, and I can’t stop my tears
But You’re the Son I’ve always loved, Son of my heart
No one can take that from me
God's precious Gift sent from above
Son of my dreams, Son of my love
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
Yes it’s my baby that they’ve crucified
