the hope of resurrection found in the garden - v2

life in the sorrow, in the suffering
something that Mary knew
the hope of resurrection
found in the garden
in Christ’s utter submission
praying to God above
for the cup to be taken from Him
life in the journey, in the cross,
in the way of the suffering servant
hope in the way of Christ
in the way that led through the cross
to His prayer for all of us
and His taking care of Mary
giving her to John to care for
even as His life slipped away
