Pieta in New York
1-Figures in the stone, The chisel reveals
What his eye has seen, What everybody feels
With glory to Him above It’s a sin to seek fame
The sculptor regrets Signing his name
Mary holds him With a marble arm
How can a mother Keep her child from harm?
Oh Pietà, Exemplar of grief
A gleaming foundation On which to build belief
2-The nations gathered In a meadow park
To demonstrate progress And banish the dark
The venerated icon Conveyed to the world of youth
Parading before me As unprovable truth
3-The statue made the journey Four thousand miles by sea
Michelangelo’s creation In the land of the free
Once he walked on water As a fisher of men
Now in a waterproof tomb He’s sailing home again
Mary holds him With a marble arm
How can a mother Keep her child from harm?
Oh Pietà, Exemplar of grief
A gleaming foundation On which to build belief
