《A Mother’s Love(Narrative)》歌词

[00:00:00] A Mother's Love (Narrative) - Johnny Cash

[00:00:06] We are in Nazareth within a few feet

[00:00:09] Of this place Jesus lived as a child

[00:00:11] With his father Joseph the carpenter

[00:00:13] And his mother Mary

[00:00:16] In Jerusalem the mother of Jesus watched

[00:00:18] Her son die on the cross

[00:00:21] She stood by to give him the only thing

[00:00:23] That she had left a mother's love

[00:00:26] It was my mother who first told me

[00:00:29] Of Israel stories of this land

[00:00:30] That made it so dear to me that I am draw

[00:00:33] Like a prodigal son to relive these stories

[00:00:36] Here's a two thousand year old story

[00:00:38] That tells of the strength of a mother's love

[00:00:42] Once a young man lived with

[00:00:44] His mother beside a great forest

[00:00:47] The young man was in love with

[00:00:49] A beautiful girl who lived in the forest

[00:00:51] He told the girl in the forest

[00:00:53] That if she would marry him

[00:00:55] He would bring her anything that she asked

[00:00:56] Knowing that the young man lived

[00:00:59] With his mother the girl said

[00:01:00] Take your dagger and cut out your mother's heart

[00:01:04] And bring it to me and I will marry you

[00:01:07] Well this made the young man very sad

[00:01:09] But he wanted to merry the girl so he killed

[00:01:12] His mother and cut out her heart

[00:01:14] Running through the forest

[00:01:15] With his mother's heart in his hands

[00:01:17] He stumbled and fell and dropped the heart

[00:01:20] As he was getting up his mother's

[00:01:22] Heart cried out from the ground

[00:01:25] My son did you hurt yourself when you fell
