'The Coronation of the Virgin', 1641-1644, by Diego Velázquez (1599-1660), Museo del Prado, Madrid
1. Sing of Mary, pure and lowly,
Virgin-Mother undefiled.
Sing of GOD’s own Son most holy,
Who became her little child.
Fairest child of fairest Mother,
GOD the LORD who came to earth,
Word made flesh, our very brother,
Takes our nature by his birth.

2. Sing of JESUS, son of Mary,
In the home at Nazareth.
Toil and labour cannot weary
Love enduring unto death.
Constant was the love he gave her,
Though it drove him from from her side,
Forth to preach, and heal, and suffer,
Till on Calvary he died.

3. Sing of Mary, sing of JESUS,
Holy Mother’s holier son.
From his throne in heaven he sees us,
Thither calls us every one,
Where he welcomes home his Mother
To a place at his right hand,
There his faithful servants gather,
There the crownèd victors stand.
​​4. Joyful Mother, full of gladness,
In thine arms thy LORD was borne.
Mournful Mother, full of sadness,
All thy heart with pain was torn.
Glorious Mother, now rewarded
With a crown at JESUS’ hand,
Age to age thy name recorded
Shall be blest in every land.

5. Glory be to GOD the FATHER;
Glory be to GOD the SON;
Glory be to GOD the SPIRIT;
Glory to the THREE in ONE.
From the heart of blessèd Mary,
From all saints the song ascends,
And the Church the strain re-echoes
Unto earth’s remotest ends.

Roland Ford Palmer SSJE, 1891-1985
The Book of Common Praise No. 807
Grant to us, we beseech thee, O Lord: that we, who celebrate the festival of the Blessed Virgin Mary our Queen, being defended by her succour, may obtain peace in this world, and glory in that which is to come; through Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, ever one God, world without end. Amen. - Divine Worship: The Missal.
