Turn we, O Mary, from thy face
To praise Him for that wondrous grace,
And crave humility like thine
Obedient to the Will Divine.

The least in all Thy Kingdom, Lord,—
It is Thy own, Thy very word!—
The least may do Thy will, and be
Like her a follower of Thee.

Too wonderful it seems, indeed;
Thy Mother all Thy saints doth lead
Can such as we a place attain
In the long splendor of that train?
