For Mary, mother of our Lord

Author: John Raphael Peacey, 1896-1971 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #743 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days The Blessed Virgin Mary Lyrics: 1 For Mary, mother of our Lord, God's holy name be praised, who first the Son of God adored, as on her child she gazed. 2 Brave, holy Virgin, she believed, though hard the task assigned, and by the Holy Ghost conceived the Saviour of mankind. *3 The busy world had got no space or time for God on earth; a cattle manger was the place where Mary gave him birth. 4 She gave her body as God's shrine, her heart to piercing pain; she knew the cost of love divine, when Jesus Christ was slain. 5 Dear Mary, from your lowliness and home in Galilee there comes a joy and holiness to every family. 6 Hail, Mary, you are full of grace, above all women blest; and blest your Son, whom your embrace in birth and death confessed.

Author: Thomas Ken, 1637-1711 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #745 (2010) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days The Blessed Virgin Mary Lyrics: 1 Her virgin eyes saw God incarnate born, when she to Bethl'em came that happy morn: how high her raptures then began to swell, none but her own omniscient Son can tell. 2 As Eve, when she her fontal sin reviewed, wept for herself and all she should include, blest Mary, with man's Saviour in embrace, joyed for herself and for all human race. 3 All saints are by her Son's dear influence blest; she kept the very fountain at her breast: the Son adored and nursed by the sweet maid a thousandfold of love for love repaid. 4 Heaven with transcendent joys her entrance graced, near to his throne her Son his mother placed; and here below, now she's of heaven possest, all generations are to call her blest.

Christians, rejoice, for through a maid to all mankind is life conveyed. 4 O Jesu, Virgin-born, to thee eternal praise and glory be, whom with the Father we adore and Holy Spirit, evermore.

And, to his glory, year by year, thy joy and honour tell? 2 Bound with the curse of sin and shame we helpless sinners lay, until in tender love he came to bear the curse away. 3 And thee he chose from whom to take true flesh his flesh to be; in it to suffer for our sake, by it to make us free. 4 Thy Babe he lay upon thy breast, to thee he cried for food; thy gentle nursing soothed to rest th'Incarnate Son of God. 5 O wondrous depth of love divine, that he should bend so low! And, Mary, oh, what joy was thine in his dear love to know; 6 joy to be mother of the Lord, and thine the truer bliss, in every thought, and deed, and word to be for ever his. 7 And as he loves thee, mother dear, we too will love thee well; and, to his glory, year by year, thy joy and honour tell. 8 Jesu, the virgin's holy Son, we praise thee and adore, who art with God the Father One and Spirit evermore.
