Mother of Mothers
Sing anthems, hymns and songs of fervent praise
To Mary virgin mother full of grace
Most sweet and tender mother of our Lord
Who gave her “yes” when she heard Gabriel’s word
Bright holy vessel, sacred spotless shrine
In whose confines the Lord chose to recline
The Lord our God of power infinite
Took in the humble maiden His delight.
O dearest mother of the Lord we pray
Be beacon bright on our pilgrims way
Give from your merits’ jewels just a beam
To light the arduous path that leads to Him
Mater Misericordia!- mother mine,
What mother would not want her children shine?
Queen of celestial beings high - to you
We bring these humble flowers white and blue
Forget-me-nots - - Lode Star, resplendent guide;
Succor Perpetual in storm and night,
Hope’s Morning Star compassionate and sweet
Take our hands and intercede and lead
Upon narrow path that leads to joy
To Him, you called your Darling Little Boy
This is composed in honor of my and our heavenly mother.
For my earthly mother I submitted my tribute a while ago.
