Trail of Tears

I heard about the lonely day

When Jesus had to die

It must have broke His mother's heart

Oh, the tears she must have cried

And though she knew the plan divine

He was still her precious Son

It only seemed like yesterday

In a stable He was born

There must have been a trail of tears

From the cross to the place

Where they laid Him down to rest

In a cold and lonely grave

And as the storm rolled to the door

To seal the Prince of Life within

It must have felt just like the end

There must have been a trail of tears

Mary knew the day would come

She'd have to say goodbye

The Son was on a mission for

Which He would give His life

The angels knew redemption

Being carried out to man

He was dying there on Calvary

The sacrificial land

There must have been a trail of tears

From the cross to the place

Where they laid Him down to rest

In a cold and lonely grave

And as the storm rolled to the door

To seal the Prince of Life within

It must have felt just like the end

There must have been a trail of tears

There must have been a trail of tears

From the cross to the place

Where they laid Him down to rest

In a cold and lonely grave

And as the storm rolled to the door

To seal the Prince of Life within

It must have felt just like the end

There must have been a trail of tears

There must have been a trail of tears

(Must have been)

There must have been a trail of tears

(Must have been)

Trial of tears
