Blessed were the chosen people Out of whom the Lord did come, Blessed was the land of promise Fashioned for his earthly home; But more blessed far the Mother She who bare him in her womb. Wherefore let all faithful people Tell the honour of her name Let the church in her foreshadowed Part in her thanksgiving claim; What Christ’s Mother sang in gladness Let Christ’s people sing the same. Praise, O Mary, praise the Father, Praise your Saviour and your Son, Praise the everlasting Spirit, Who has made you ark and throne; O’er all creatures high exalted, Lowly praise the Three in One. Amen. The angel of the Lord brought tidings to Mary. And she conceived by the Holy Spirit. V. STUCKEY S. COLES 1845-1929 25
