that lonely six hours – v5

knowing no sleep that night

for Mary, for Jesus

that long night become morning

the day excruciating, torment,

leading to the death of our Savior

that lonely six hours

her vigil of the cross

the vigil at His cross

nothing she could do

but to stand there and watch
