We Sing to Our Blessed Virgin Mary

Intro

Oh—oh, oh—oh, ha-lei, ha-lei, ha

(We sing, we sing)

Verse

Mother of mercy, gentle and near

You who held the quiet hope and the fear

Soft like a lantern in the midnight road

Guide every weary soul back home

(Lead us, lead us)

Pre-chorus

Lift your hand, lift your name (lift it high)

Turn our sorrow into flame (turn it bright)

We come to the cradle and we kneel

You hear the hush, you heal, you heal

Chorus

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, sing it again

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen

Verse

When the road was heavy, when my feet would fail

She wrapped me in a promise, like a sailor’s sail

Her lullaby a doorway, a voice that knows my name

Shelter in the thunder, steady in the flame

(Stay with us, stay with us)

Pre-chorus

Lift your hand, lift your name (lift it high)

Turn our sorrow into flame (turn it bright)

We come to the cradle and we kneel

You hear the hush, you heal, you heal

Chorus

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, sing it again

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen

Bridge

Mother, we call you (we call you)

Mother, we find you (we find you)

When the night is heavy, you stand like dawn

(Mother, Mother) — oh, you carry on

Bring us the morning, bring us the song

(Bring it, bring it)

Chorus

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, sing it again

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen

Chorus

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, oh

We sing to our blessed Virgin Mary, sing it again

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen

Hallelujah, hold her near, amen
