she called Him ‘son’

They called Him ‘teacher’

following from town to town 

Others, the ‘king’ 

come to reign with a crown

Some, 'healer', as he gave them 

eyes to see 

To me, ‘my savior’ 

shining his love down on me 


But she called him ‘son’

Raised from the infant

that pierced her womb

She loved him before

He was known to the world 


She called him ‘son’

As her baby grew to a man

Lost in the crowd

In his father’s house finally found


She followed closely

As he began his great task

She watched him love others

She was there at the last 


<breath>


She stood in the shadows 

Tears at the loss 

Regardless of what was coming

She stood at the cross


Aware of his teachings

She still remembered the babe

That now hung dying

She saw it all

His birth, now the grave


And she called him ‘son’


The king of kings

The teacher

The healer

The one


still her ‘son’.
