Blessed Is She

Blessed is she among women,
who carried the life our Lord;
who answered the call ever faithfully ,
though the journey for her would be hard.

Blessed is she among women,
whose faith carried her through;
delivering the world a saviour,
who came for me and you.

Blessed is she among women,
who held up through it all;
who became the Holy Mother,
a mother for us all.

Blessed is she among women,
who intercedes on our behalf;
who appears across the world,
offering to be our guiding staff.

Blessed is she among women,
who provides messages to remind;
so that all will know His love,
and no one left behind.

Blessed is she among women,
and blessed truly are we;
to be the ones to receive the gift,
that she gave to us so free.

Blessed is she among women,
for the cost to her was great;
her reward she earned with faith,
the first to ascend through the gate.

Blessed is she among women,
faith her armour and her sword;
angels messages followed freely,
as her son’s life fulfilled the word.

Blessed is she among women,
gentle Mary, mother of all;
virgin child, oh, Holy Mother,
thank you for answering the call.
