Embrace
Lyrics written by Dan Anguis and Mike Grothem
Blessed Mother hear my cry
Can you see the pain inside?
I have turned and walked away
Gentle woman help me pray
Chorus -
Hold me in your arms tonight Mother
Pull me near your immaculate heart
Wipe away these tears that I have cried
Help me be more like your perfect son!
I am ashamed for my sin
I have fallen once again
Pick me up and help me see
(That) your son is all I need!
Background
This is the first song that Dan and Mike collaborated lyrically. Mary is our one true Mother, who knows sorrow better than any of us ever will. She also knows love as none of us will. Thus, we should turn to her for comfort in our sufferings and for guidance to true love, our Lord Jesus.
