Valley of Tears...


Valley of Tears


Down in the valley, this valley so low
Bend your ear toward us and let us know
You're Our loving Mother, so gentle and dear
Like children we trust you, to dry every tear

The trials and temptations that we daily face
Grow dimmer around us, when we gaze on your face
The radiance of angels, just cannot compare
To your lovely countenance, so pure and so fair

Down in the valley, this valley of tears
The love of Our Lady, keeps us safe from all fears
Wrapped in her mantle, we're kept safe and warm
She leads us to Jesus, so He can transform…

Us into His image, the likeness of Him
To bring light into this world darkened by sin
Like roses in winter, we gather ‘round you
Our sweet, tender Mother, Lovely Lady in blue

Down in the valley, this valley so low
Bend your ear toward us and let us know
Our Lady, Our Mother, so gentle and dear
Your children are safe when we know you’re near
