Mary, Mother sweet
Appears in 12 hymnals First Line: As the gentle Spring uncloses Lyrics: 1 As the gentle Spring uncloses,
And the Winter fades away,
Sunlight glistens, lilies blow,
As we greet the month of May,
As we hail its peerless Queen Mary,
Mother of delight,
In her own especial season,
Sing her praise from morn to night.
Chorus:
Mary, Mother sweet,
Mary, Mother fair,
Virgin Queen of May,
Hear our pray'r.
Unto Jesus pray that each day
We may grow like thee,
Our Queen of May.
2 May is Mary's--she is ours--
Thus the month is doubly dear:
As we crown her with our flow'rs;
Angels gladly hover near,
And the blessed Jesus smiles
On each humble votary,
And our homage to His Mother
Will requite most graciously. [Chorus]
3 Dearest Mother! we remember
How as one request of thine,
Jesus, at the marriage feast,
Changed the water into wine; [Chorus]
At our feast, ah! let the flood
Of our tears thy pity move;
Beg, oh! beg thy Son to change it
To the wine of perfect love. [Chorus]
4 Take us all 'neath thy protection,
Heart, and soul, and senses, take!
Tell dear Jesus we are thine,
And He'll bless us for thy sake; [Chorus]
And the treasures of our Mary,
Up in heaven we shall store;
Naught shall steal them, naught corrode them,
They shall last for evermore! [Chorus]

Mary, Mother sweet
Happy we who thus united
Appears in 5 hymnals Refrain First Line: Jesus, Mary, Joseph, help us Lyrics: 1 Happy we who thus united
Join in cheerful melody,
Praising Jesus, Mary, Joseph,
In the Holy Family.
Chorus:
Jesus, Mary, Joseph, help us,
That we ever true may be
To the promises that bind us
To the Holy Family,
To the promises that bind us
To the Holy Family.
2 Jesus, whose Almighty bidding
All created things fulfil,
Lives on earth in meek subjection
To his earthly parents' will.
Chorus:
Sweetest Infant! make us patient,
And obedient for Thy sake;
Teach us to be chaste and gentle,
All our stormy passions break,
Teach us to be chaste and gentle,
All our stormy passions break.
3 Mary! thou alone wert chosen
To be Mother of thy Lord:
Thou didst guide the early footsteps
Of the great Incarnate Word.
Dearest Mother! make us humble,
For thy Son will take His rest
In the poor and lowly dwelling
Of a humble sinner's breast.
4 Joseph! thou wert called the Father
Of thy Maker and thy Lord;
Thine it was to save thy Saviour
From the cruel Herod's sword.
Suffer us to call thee Father,
Show to us a father's love;
Lead us safe through every danger
Till we meet in heaven above.

The good Shepherd
Appears in 25 hymnals First Line: Come, wand'ring sheep, oh! come Lyrics: 1 Come, wand'ring sheep, oh! come,
I'll bind thee to my breast,
I'll bear thee to thy home
And lay thee down to rest.
2 I saw thee stray forlorn,
And heard thee faintly cry,
And on the tree of scorn
For thee I deigned to die.
3 I shield thee from alarms,
And wilt thou not be blest?
I bear thee in my arms,
Thou bear me in thy breast. Used With Tune: [Come, wand'ring sheep, oh! come]
The good Shepherd
Come, ye lofty! come, ye lowly
Appears in 42 hymnals First Line: Come, ye lofty! come, ye lowly! Lyrics: 1 Come, ye lofty! come, ye lowly!
Let your songs of gladness ring!
In a stable lies the Holy,
In a manger rests the King,
See, in Mary's arms reposing,
Christ, by highest heav'n adored:
Come, your circle round Him closing,
Pious hearts that love the Lord.
2 Come, ye poor! no pomp of station
Robes the Child your hearts adore:
He, the Lord of all salvation,
Shares your want, is weak and poor:
Oxen round about behold them,
Rafters naked, cold and bare:
See the shepherds! God has told them
That the "Prince of Peace" lies there.
3 High above a star is shining,
And the Wise Men haste from far:
Come, glad hearts, and spirits pining,
For you all has ris'n the star.
Let s bring our glad oblations,
Thanks, and love, and faith, and praise;
Come, ye people! Come, ye nations!
All in all draw nigh to gaze.
4 Hark! the Heaven of heavens is ringing,
Christ the Lord to man is born!
Are not all our hearts, too, singing,
Welcome, welcome, Christmas morn?
Still the Child, all power possessing,
Smiles as through the ages past,
And the song of Christmas blessing
Sweetly sinks to rest at last. Used With Tune: [Come, ye lofty! come, ye lowly!]
Come, ye lofty! come, ye lowly

Haste with joy your vows to pay;
Christ, the Lord, is ris'n on high:
Now he lives, no more to die.

Now the firstborn from the dead,
Thron'd in endless might and pow'r,
Lives and reigns for evermore.

Hail, Thou Prince of life ador'd;
Help and saved us, precious Lord! Used With Tune: [Christ, the Lord is ris'n today]

Mother, dear, oh! pray for me
Appears in 28 hymnals First Line: Mother dear, oh! pray for me Refrain First Line: Mother dear, remember me Lyrics: 1 Mother dear, oh! pray for me,
Whilst far from heav'n and thee
I wander in a fragile bark,
On life's tempestous sea.
O virgin Mother, from thy throne,
So bright in bliss above,
Protect thy child, and cheer my path
With thy sweet smile of love.
Chorus:
Mother dear, remember me,
And never cease thy care
Till in heav'n eternally
Thy love and bliss I share.
2 Mother dear, oh pray for me,
Should pleasure's syren lay
E'er tempt thy child to wander far
From Virtue's paths away:
When thorns beset life's devious way,
And darkling waters flow,
Then, Mary, aid thy weeping child,
Thyself a Mother show.
Mother dear, etc.
3 Mother dear, oh pray for me,
When all looks bright and fair,
That I may all my danger see,
For surely then 'tis near;
A Mother's pray'r how much we need,
If prosperous be the ray,
That paints with glow the flow'ry mead
Which blossoms in our way.
Mother, dear, etc.

Find a sweet and healing balm;

Shed around a heav'nly calm. [Chorus]

Jesus answers ev'ry pray'r;
With His help the soul sustaining,
Makes her ev'ry blessing share. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Graces from my Jesus flowing]
