The First One Ever, O Ever to Know

The first one ever, oh, ever to know of the birth of Jesus
was the Maid Mary, was Mary the Maid of Galilee,
and blessed is she, is she who believes.
Oh blessed is she who believes in the Lord, oh blessed is she who believes.
She was Mary the Maid of Galilee, and blessed is she, is she who believes.
