A Mother with Mary to You

Jesus, I pour myself into Your Divine Will,

And here, together with Mary,

I intend to be a mother to You.

VERSE 1

As she kissed You, as she sang You lullabies,

As she washed You, dried the tears You cried,

In all she offered, all she said to You,

I intend, with her, in God’s Will, to do.

VERSE 2

As she held You, as she prayed for You,

As she rocked You and cared for You,

As she washed and folded Your little clothes,

I intend to do with her what she did for You.

VERSE 3

As she watched You grow from day to day,

As she walked with You and watched You play,

As she treasured every memory in her heart,

I intend with Mary to take part.

As she walked beside You through the years,

Shared Your laughter, comforted Your tears,

In every little act of motherhood,

I join my love with hers in all she did.

Together with Mother Mary,

I intend to mother You,

My little Baby Jesus,

So gentle, sweet, and true.

Tender little Jesus,

Yet courageous, brave, and strong,

With Mary I will love You,

And stay with You all along.
