Sweet Mother
Through wondrous love, the heart of God
Conceived a glorious plan: —
A struggling world to be shown the Way
By the Son of God made man.
God chose a maid with a snow-white soul
To be the Virgin-Mother;
In poverty, her pathway lay,
The poorest man, her brother.
Her life of labor, prayer, and pain,
Reflects the life of her Son —
Shows womankind the only Way
A heavenly crown is won.
She brought the Light into the world
To shine for you and me,
And following the love-lit Way,
Sweet Mother, we praise thee.
