Her Mother’s Heart

His Majesty was born for me
And the tear stained face of the virgin beheld her son
She held him close, her mother’s heart
Filled with love to bursting, a new work begun
Oh, God’s new chosen Eve said yes
Accepting grace-filled holiness
Her heart the hinge of heaven’s gates
Thrown open wide for sinners’ sakes
She watched him grow way too fast
Her nurturing arms could hold him for only so long
She pondered in her mother’s heart
How the tie that binds suffering to love is surprisingly strong
Oh, God’s new chosen Eve said yes
Accepting grace-filled holiness
Her heart the hinge of heaven’s gates
Thrown open wide for sinners’ sakes
Her yes was history’s turning point
Oh divine mystery, mankind joined
By her tabernacle womb of love
The Mother of God bore to us salvation
His Majesty died for me
And the tear stained face of the virgin beheld her son
She held him close, her mother’s heart
Filled with love to breaking, his work here was done
Oh, God’s new chosen Eve said yes
Accepting grace-filled holiness
Her heart the hinge of heaven’s gates
Thrown open wide for sinners’ sakes
When her mother’s heart was crucified
And we were saved
