Lyrics: 

1. OH MOTHER 
Oh Mother 
Oh destiny 
There’s a pain within the broken heart 
There’s a pain within the broken hearted 
For the reason we must part 
For the reason we must stand apart 
Let me cover all the tears 
Let it vanish all the fears 
Mother Mary weeps for destiny 
Sweet Mother Mary 
There’s a pain within the heart 
For the reason we must part 
Let me cover all the tears 
Let it vanish all the fears 
2. IN HER LOVE 
In her love there life will start 
even though the goodbeye’s hard 
Those who suffer in the world 
Let them turn towards her soul 
Hear tomorrow’s children weep 
Mothers cradle them to sleep 
overcome the greatest pain 
by the love that it will gain 
In her love where life will start 
Mother Mary’s gentle heart 
cares for suffering in the world 
Lets it heal from wounds to whole 
Hear tomorrow’s children weep 
Cradle them to sleep, rest deep 
overcome the greatest pain 
there’s just love that will remain 
All the suffering in the world 
Everything has its own role 
3. OH FATHER 
Oh Father, is all lost? 
To pay life’s price at any cost? 
Oh Father there’s no higher price 
then any human sacrifice 
Oh Father, is all lost? 
Pay life’s price at any cost? 
Father there’s no higher price 
Then a human sacrifice 
Oh Father there’s no higher sacrifice 
4. IN OUR DESTINY 
In our destiny lies rest 
every child on mother’s chest 
Mother Mary crying softly 
5. THROUGH THE BATTLE 
There’s the hoping, there’s the care 
There’s a hoping care 
There’s the wondering out there 
through the battle conquer pains 
like our blood runs through our vains 
Through the battle 
Conquer 
Conquer 
Conquer pains 
6. ALL FREE 
Mother Mary 
In the end it sets all free 
all free, all light 
that’s what binds each other tight 
That’s what gets us through the night 
all free, all light 
from the night 
7. PENDING OF TIME 
Towards the pending of our time 
let’s hold each other in a rhyme 
let’s hand to words throughout a hymne 
let end of suffering begin 
8. PARTING CHILDREN 
Mother’s parting children hurt 
Locks the heart and shuts the eye 
But there’s peace, not just a word 
that makes us carry the goodbye 
There is a pain in every heart 
There is a tear for every part 
in life it praises all the pain 
for only love that will remain 
9. IN ALL ENDING 
Oh Mother, Oh Destiny 
in all the ending there it lies 
for all the hurt the mother cries 
10. ARE WE LOST? 
Oh Father, are we lost? 
To pay life’s price at any cost? 
Oh Father, Father, let us rise 
for your son’s human sacrifice 
Oh Mother, Father, let us rise 
to honour the world’s paradise
