At God’s word: “Behold thy son”
Had new motherhood begun
Caught in the love of Three-in-One:
O Queen of Priests and Mother.

Unto His will thine did bow
And broach’d love thenceforth allow
With singing heart and silent vow:
O valiant Maid and Mother.

Pure Heart! Hide thy priests therein,
Thieve back hearts that bleed in sin
And vanquish’d souls in solace win:
Fair Virgin Spouse and Mother.

With thy grace their hearts endow
And steel them in courage now
To love Love as thou knowest how:
O Queen of Priests and Mother.
