There s No Cross Lyrics

song lyrics There s No Cross That Love Won t Bear lyrics Once a mother stood on a corner Tears betrayed her painted smile She was trading in her halo For just enough to feed her children Then an old man, cold and hungry Saw her crying and he stopped He gave her his one possession A shining silver pocket watch There s no cross that love won t bear And when you re down to your last prayer It will be the saving grace In the depths of your despair There s no cross that love won t bear So the old man found a dumpster, Crawled inside and went to sleep As he drifted into slumber He prayed the Lord, his soul to keep Then the mother with her halo Came to him in a dream And he woke up in a mansion His silver watch there on it s chain There s no cross that love won t bear And when you re down to your last prayer It will be the saving grace In the depths of your despair There s no cross that love won t bear No, there s no cross that love won t bear song lyrics
