Author: Mary Frances Fleischaker Hymnal: Catholic Book of Worship III #465 (1994) Lyrics: 1 Mary, woman of the promise;
Vessel of your people's dreams,
Through your open, willing spirit
Waters of God's goodness streamed.
2 Mary, song of holy wisdom,
Sung before the world began,
Faithful to the Word within, you
Carried out God's wondrous plan.
3 Mary, morning star of justice;
Mirror of the radiant light,
In the shadows of life's journey,
Be a beacon for our sight.
4 Mary, model of compassion;
Wounded by your offspring's pain,
When our hearts are torn by sorrow,
Teach us how to love again.
5 Mary, woman of the Gospel;
Humble home for treasured seed,
Help us to be true disciples
Bearing fruit in word and deed. Topics: Advent; Mary, Mother of God Languages: English Tune Title: DRAKE'S BROUGHTON
Mary, Woman of the Promise
