A Mother's Love (Narrative) - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]

We are in Nazareth within a few feet[00:00:06]

Of this place Jesus lived as a child[00:00:09]

With his father Joseph the carpenter[00:00:11]

And his mother Mary[00:00:13]

In Jerusalem the mother of Jesus watched[00:00:16]

Her son die on the cross[00:00:18]

She stood by to give him the only thing[00:00:21]

That she had left a mother's love[00:00:23]

It was my mother who first told me[00:00:26]

Of Israel stories of this land[00:00:29]

That made it so dear to me that I am draw[00:00:30]

Like a prodigal son to relive these stories[00:00:33]

Here's a two thousand year old story[00:00:36]

That tells of the strength of a mother's love[00:00:38]

Once a young man lived with[00:00:42]

His mother beside a great forest[00:00:44]

The young man was in love with[00:00:47]

A beautiful girl who lived in the forest[00:00:49]

He told the girl in the forest[00:00:51]

That if she would marry him[00:00:53]

He would bring her anything that she asked[00:00:55]

Knowing that the young man lived[00:00:56]

With his mother the girl said[00:00:59]

Take your dagger and cut out your mother's heart[00:01:00]

And bring it to me and I will marry you[00:01:04]

Well this made the young man very sad[00:01:07]

But he wanted to merry the girl so he killed[00:01:09]

His mother and cut out her heart[00:01:12]

Running through the forest[00:01:14]

With his mother's heart in his hands[00:01:15]

He stumbled and fell and dropped the heart[00:01:17]

As he was getting up his mother's[00:01:20]

Heart cried out from the ground[00:01:22]

My son did you hurt yourself when you fell[00:01:25]
