To a Maid Whose Name Was Mary
Author: Gracia Grindal Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Biblical Characters Mary, Mother of Jesus Lyrics: 1 To a maid whose name was Mary,
the angel Gabriel came.
“Fear not” the angel told her,
“I come to bring good news;
good news I come to tell you,
good news, I say, good news."
2 “For you are highly favoured
by the God the Lord of all,
who even now is with you.
You are on earth most blest;
you are most blest, most blessèd,
God chose you, you are blest!”
3 But Mary was most troubled
to hear the angel’s word.
What was the angel saying?
It troubled her to hear,
to hear the angel’s message,
it troubled her to hear.
4 “Fear not, for God is with you,
and you shall bear a child.
His name shall be called Jesus,
God’s offspring from on high.
And he shall reign forever,
forever reign on high.”
5 “How shall this be?” said Mary,
“that I should be with child.”
The angel answered quickly,
“The power of the Most High
will come upon you shortly,
your child shall be God’s child.”
6 As Mary heard the angel,
she wondered at his words.
“Behold, I am your handmaid,”
she said unto her God.
“So be it; I am ready
according to your word.” Used With Tune: ANNUNCIATION

welcome with your smiles returning.
Let your alleluias rise!

see him living evermore;
see his countenance so gracious,
see the wounds for you he bore.
All the glory of the morning
pales before those wounds redeeming.
Let your alleluias rise!
3 Life is yours for ever, Mary --
for your light is come once more
and the strength of death is broken;
now your songs of joy outpour.
Ended now the night of sorrow,
love has brought the blessed morrow.
