1. Mother dearest, Mother fairest,
Help of all who call on Thee,
Virgin purest, brightest, rarest,
Help us, Help we cry to Thee.
Chorus
Mary, Help us, help we pray
Mary, Help us, help we pray
Help us in all care and sorrow,
Mary, Help us, help we pray
2. Mary, help in pain and sorrow,
Soothe those rack'd in bed of pain
May tge golden light of morrow
Bing them health and joy again.
Chorus
3. Help our priests, our sisters lowly,
Help our Pope, long may he reign,
Pray that we who sing their praises
May in Heaven all meet again
Chorus
4. Mary, help the absent loved ones;
How we miss their presence here,
May the hand of Thy protection,
Guard and guide them far and near.
