Mother Mary - Tim O'Brien

Mother Mary, Mother, take me

Mother Mary, show me how

Leave my pain and separation

Mother, take me with you now

You know trouble, you know sorrow

You have seen this all before

You have heard so many prayers

I ask you now to hear one more

Mother Mary, Mother, take me

Mother Mary, show me how

Leave my pain and separation

Mother, take me with you now

Something slowly grows inside me

Something makes a pleading sound

Every day a little louder

Tell me, will it take me down?

Mother Mary, Mother, take me

Mother Mary, show me how

Leave my pain and separation

Mother, take me with you now

In the morning we’ll be leaving

Float your swift and winding stream

To the mouth and then the delta

To the source of my blue dreams

Where all is love and all is water

All is hope and all is light

Melt away what separates us

Take me into glory’s light

Mother Mary, Mother, take me

Mother Mary, show me how

Leave my pain and separation

Mother, take me with you now

You know trouble, you know sorrow

You have seen this all before

You have heard so many prayers

I ask you now to hear one more

Mother Mary, Mother, take me

Mother Mary, show me how

Leave my pain and separation

Mother, take me with you now

Mother, take me with you now
