"God, I Thank You For Mary"

Father, I thank you for Mary

For she accomplished all

Being bold and courageous

and for answering the call.

Father, I thank you for Mary

for becoming the mother of Jesus Christ

who was born, died, buried, and on the third day got up from the grave

that we might have eternal life.

Father, I thank you for Mary

for her life reveals

that we are only vessels to do God's will.

Father, I thank you for Mary.

Father God, I thank you for the Mary Experience.

I thank you for Mary's life.

But most of all I want to thank you

for giving me Jesus Christ.
