Mary's Tears by writerforever
They have me plastered upon their walls
They have statues erected of me
They pray to me, instead of my beloved Son
They worship me and forget about Jesus
My heart would be broken if I knew this
If I knew this I would go to my Son
And beg for His forgiveness
And tell Him that it is not my fault they worship me
Instead of Him
Don't they understand?
Don't they realize that I cannot save them?
I am but a flesh and blood human
Just like they are
I cried
I suffered
I prayed
I sinned
Just like they do
But they have placed me on a pedestal
I have become a god to them
They look to me
Instead of to Jesus
But do they not realize I do not hear their prayers?
Do they not realize that I am safe in Heaven
Walking the streets of gold
And singing praises to my Son?
If I knew, I would cry tears
Tears of grief and sorrow
Because they love me more than they do my Son
Satan has deceived them
I would cry tears
Tears….
