WITH MARY

With you, dear Mary, we begin this year,
Hearts open like your womb to your Son greet,
As Gabriel says to us to have no fear,
For in each heart we will our Savior meet.
May we with you and Joseph journey make
To Bethlehem to learn humility,
And on that journey God’s first promise take
That from our sins your Son will set us free.
Although the world will close its doors that night,
Your open door will be in stable laid,
While we and world await God’s bright starlight
To shine for all who have this journey made.
Dear Mary, may our hearts with you respond;
In Advent journey with you we will bond.
