Songtext von Can You Hear Me?

My child, my child now gone from me My heart is like an empty sea My womb is like an open grave The pain is buried deep away O I should weep a thousand years The sea could not contain my tears for you Mama, can you hear me now? I'm singing with the angels dancing ʻround Mama, do not be afraid My love for you will never change I've always loved you And every tear I've seen you weep Is held by God's ocean of mercy Mother Mary is it true? My child is there in heaven with you? Will you call my child by name And give the love I never gave? O Mary will you hold my child in your arms? Mary, will you let me hold my child in your arms? Mary, will you hold us both in your arms to rest To rest in peace? (A song of mourning for all babies Who have died through abortion A prayer of healing for souls suffering From the wound of abortion A voice was heard in Ramah, sobbing And loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children And she would not be consoled Because her children were no more
