On This Day O Beautiful Mother - Lyrics

On this day O beautiful Mother
On this day we give thee our love
Near the Madonna fondly we hover
Trusting thy gentle care to prove


On this day we ask to share
Dearest Mother thy sweet care
Aid us ere our feet astray
Waner from thy guiding way


On this day O beautiful Mother
On this day we give thee our love
Near the Madonna fondly we hover
Trusting thy gentle care to prove


Queen of angels deign to hear
Lisping children's humble prayer
Young hearts gain O virgin pure
Sweetly to thyself allure


On this day O beautiful Mother
On this day we give thee our love
Near the Madonna fondly we hover
Trusting thy gentle care to prove


Rose of Sharon Lovely flow'r
Beauteous bud of eden's bow'r
Cherished lily of the vale
Virgin Mother' Queen we hail


On this day O beautiful Mother
On this day we give thee our love
Near the Madonna fondly we hover
Trusting thy gentle care to prove


In_vain the flow'rs of love we bring
In_vain sweet music's note we sing
If_contrite heart and lowly pprayer
Guide_not our gifts to thy bright sphere


On this day O beautiful Mother
On this day we give thee our love
Near the Madonna fondly we hover
Trusting thy gentle care to prove


Fast our days of life we run
Soon the night of death will come
Tower of strength in that dread hour
Come with all thy gentle power


On this day O beautiful Mother
On this day we give thee our love
Near the Madonna fondly we hover
Trusting thy gentle care to prove
