Laudis Corona ‎#11

11. Daily, daily sing to Mary

1 Daily, daily sing to Mary,
Sing, my soul, her praises due;
All her feasts, her actions worship,
With the heart's devotion true.

Chorus:
Lost in wond'ring contemplation,
Be her majesty confessed;
Call her Mother, call her Virgin:
Happy Mother, Virgin blest.

2 Holy Mary, we implore thee,
By thy purity divine,
Help us, bending here before thee,
Help us truly to be thine,

Chorus:
Thou, unfolding wide the portals
Of the kingdom in the skies,
Holy Virgin, hast to mortals
Shown the land of Paradise.

3 Teach oh! teach us, Holy Mother,
How to conquer every sin,
How to love and help each other,
How the prize of life to win.

Chorus:
Thou to whom a Child was given
Greater than the sons of men,
Coming down from highest heaven,
To create this world of sin.

4 Oh! by that Almighty Maker
Whom thyself, a virgin bore;
Oh by thy Supreme Creator,
Linked with thee forevermore;

Chorus:
By the hope thy name inspires;
By our doom, reversed thro' thee;
Help us, Queen of Angel choirs,
To a blest eternity.
