An original Christmas hymn with music by Kevin G. Pace and text by Mary Ann Snowball below:
Who is this Mary, mother dear? Who is this virgin fair?
Who is this chosen vessel With her attributes so rare?
She heard the words of Gabriel, The angel from on
high:
"Hail, thou art highly favoured." And her needs would
be supplied.
"Fear not," for God was with her now To bring forth
his own Son.
For she obeyed in every way; This was the Holy One.
"Behold the handmaid of the Lord, according to thy
word,"
Was Marys sure response that day; Gods love for her
assured.
Then Mary pondered all these things And kept them in
her heart.
The wonder of the promised vow Of which shed be a
part
Distilled upon her mind and soul. Of women she was blessed.
Who is this mother for Gods Son? From all, she was the best.
Who is this mother, chosen first? Sweet Mary was most blessed.
