SONG TO OUR LADY / by Joe Castorino

To the tune of “Silent Worship” by George Frideric Handel

O behold Our Lady,

Who hears the church bells ringing,

Silent, she waits and listens,

Then, hears the angels singing;

And, lo, behold Our Lady,

So beautiful and fair,

Smiling in the Sonshine,

With a glory of golden hair.

She cuddled with Baby Jesus,

In a stable in Bethlehem,

The light from the little Savior

Shone brightly like a gem.

Surely you love Our Lady,

Who joins the angels singing,

Deep in His heart of mercy,

Her prayers with ours are mingling;

And, lo, behold Our Lady,

So beautiful and fair,

Smiling in the Sonshine,

God’s love is in the air.
