Through a Mother's Eyes

In the midnight hours of Layton’s first night,
I held him in my arms, so very tight.
Tears streamed down my face,
As I thought about a woman who was once in my place.
To know that your son had come, but to die,
How could she stand it, how could she not cry?
So small and so innocent, free from all sin,
Yet convicted and declared guilty by the likes of men.
How hard it must have been to know her child’s fate,
To know his blood would be shed for others in the race.
God said it is not the fastest,
That we would trip from time to time,
But Jesus came to die for those that endureth,
For in the end, “They will be Mine.”
