with a mingled hope and fear,
faithful men and women praying,

the Desire of all the nations —
it is time he should appear!'
2 then the Spirit of the Highest
to a virgin meek came down,
and he burdened her with blessing,
and he pained he with renown;
for she bore the Lord's anointed
for his cross and for his crown.
3 Earth has groaned and laboured for him
since the ages first began,
for in him was hid the secret
which through all the ages ran —
Son of Mary, Son of David,
Son of God, and Son of Man. Languages: English Tune Title: LINGWOOD

Our very flesh our maker shares,
His fallen creatures, all, to save.

A maiden, in her lowly place,
Became, in ways beyond all thought,
The chosen vessel of his grace.
4 And while the angels in the sky
Sang praise above the silent field,
To shepherds poor the Lord most high,
the one great shepherd, was revealed.Amen.

To God the Father ever be;

And Holy Ghost, eternally. Amen Languages: English Tune Title: A SOLIS ORTUS CARDINE

When she to Bethl'em came that happy morn;
How high her raptures then began to swell,
None but her own omniscient Son can tell.
2 As Eve when she her fontal sin reviewed,
Wept for herself and all she should include,
Blest Mary with man's Saviour in embrace
Joyed for herself and for all human race.
3 All saints are by her son's dear influence blest,
She kept the very Fountain at her breast;
The Son adored and nursed by the sweet Maid
A thousandfold of love for love repaid.
4 Heaven with transcendent joys her entrance graced,
Next to his throne her Son his Mother placed;
And here below, now she's of heaven possest,
All generations are to call her blest. Languages: Latin Tune Title: FARLEY CASTLE

Beyond the light of burning star,
From him who made thee thou hast won
Grace to be Mother of his Son.
2 That which was lost in hapless Eve
Thy holy offspring did retrieve:
Thy tear-worn sons of Adam's race
Through thee have seen the heavenly place.
3 Thou wast the gate of heaven's high Lord,
The door through which the light hath poured.
Christians rejoice, for through a Maid
To all mankind is life conveyed.
4 O Jesu, Virgin-born, to thee
Eternal praise and glory be,
Whom with the Father we adore
And Holy Spirit, evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: IVYHATCH
O glorious Maid, exalted far
Shall we not love thee, Mother dear
Author: H. W. Baker, 1821-77 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #184 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Annunciation March 25th Lyrics: 1 Shall we not love thee, Mother dear,
Whom Jesus loves so well,
And to his glory year by year
Thy praise and honour tell?
2 Thee did he choose from whom to take
True flesh, his flesh to be;
In it to suffer for our sake,
And by it make us free.
3 O wondrous depth of love divine,
That he should bend so low;
And, Mary, O what joy was thine
The Saviour's love to know.
4 Joy to be Mother of the Lord,
Yet thine the truer bliss,
In every thought and deed and word
To be for ever his.
5 Now in the realm of life above
Close to thy Son thou art,
While on thy soul glad streams of love
Flow from his sacred heart.
6 Jesu, the Virgin's holy Son,
Praise we thy Mother blest;
Grant when our earthly course is run,
Life with the saints at rest. Languages: English Tune Title: BEATITUDO
Shall we not love thee, Mother dear
