The Birthday of Our Queen
By Sister Francis Marie
(Hymn published in 1948).
All hail, O new world! Come and see
Here in a cradle lies our Queen,
Mother of God, one day to be,
O come and see this heavenly scene.
A beauteous, fragrant rose-bud,
Immaculate! God’s own flower,
His masterpiece of royal blood
Who came to earth this midnight hour!
Thousands of Angels stand to guard
This mystical counterpart of God
And Seraphs play sweet lullabies
Upon their harps, as Cherubs laud.
Hail holy babe! Hail full of grace!
With wee hands clasped, with eyelids closed
She talks with God – face to face!
Amen
