Maria 5

(VERSE1)
Born in humility, chosen from above,
The light of the promise, the heavens showed their love.
(VERSE2)
The angel brought the word, her heart began to sway,
“Hail, full of grace,” to God she gave her way.
(VERSE3)
In her arms so tender, Jesus found His rest,
Sweet maternal care, her love stood manifest.
(VERSE4)
Beneath the cross she wept, steadfast she remained,
Mother of all life, her heart bore all the pain.
(VERSE6)
Oh, holy Mary, lead us in the way,
To the path eternal, guide us every day.
(Chorus)
Mary, Mary, star shining bright,
Light for her children who call in the night.
Mother of hope, hear our heart's plea,
Lead us to your Son, our eternity.
