Mama Who Bore Me (Rise Cast Version) lyrics

[Chorus]
Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so sad
Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in Heaven or Bethlehem

[Verse]
Some pray that, one day, Christ will come a-callin'
They light a candle, and hope that it glows
And some just lie there, crying for Him to come and find them
But when He comes, they don't know how to go

[Chorus]
Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so bad
Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in Heaven or Bethlehem
