Bar-rio Window

The angel Gabriel from heaven came
His wings as drifted snow
His eyes as flame
"All hail" said he "thou lowly maiden Mary,
Most highly favoured maid," Gloria!

"For known a blessed mother thou shalt be,
All generations laud and honor thee,
Thy Son shall be Emanuel,
By seers foretold
Most highly favoured maid," Gloria!

Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head
"To me be as it pleaseth God," she said,
"My soul shall laud and magnify his holy name."
Most highly favoured maid Gloria!

Of her Emanuel, the Christ was born
In Bethlehem all on a Christmas morn
And everyone throughout the world forever saved
Most highly favoured maid Gloria!

The Seven Rejoices of Mary

The first good joy that Mary had
It was the joy of one.
The first rejoice that Mary had
Was to see her new born son.

To see her new born Son good man,
And blessed may He be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost
To all eternity.

The next good joy that Mary had
It was the joy of two
To see her son Jesus
Make the lame to go.

The next rejoice that Mary had
It was the joy of three
To see her own son Jesus,
To make the blind to see

To make the blind to see good man
And blessed may He be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost
To all eternity.

The next good joy our Lady had
It was the joy of four.
It was the rejoice of her dear son,
When he read the bible o’er.

The next good joy that Mary had
It was the joy of five.
To see her own son Jesus,
To make the dead alive.

To make the dead alive good man
And blessed may He be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost
To all eternity.

The next rejoice our Lady had,
It was the rejoice of six
To see her own son Jesus
To bear the crucifix.
The next good joy that Mary had,
It was the joy of seven
To see her own son Jesus,
To wear the crown of he’ven

To wear the crown of heaven good man
And blessed may He be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost
To all eternity.

And glo-o- ory may he be,
And blessed now be she.
And those who sing the seven long verses
In honour of our Lady.
