For Mary, Mother of the Lord
For Mary, Mother of the Lord
God's holy name be praised,
Who first the Son of God adored
As on her child she gazed.
The angel Gabriel brought the word
She should Christ's mother be;
Our Lady, handmaid of the Lord,
Made answer willingly.
The heavenly call she thus obeyed,
And so God's will was done;
The second Eve love's answer made
Which our redemption won.
She gave her body for God's shrine,

Her heart to piercing pain,
And knew the cost of love divine
When Jesus Christ was slain.
Dear Mary, from your lowliness
And home in Galilee,
There comes a joy and holiness
To every family.
Hail, Mary, you are full of grace,
Above all women blest;
Blest in your Son, whom your embrace
In birth and death confessed.
