Ode to Mary, Mother of Virtues
Oh Mary, Mother of Faith
You taught us to obey God
Your humble submission we congratulate
Oh Mary, Mother of Hope
You offered us God's Messiah
Your fruit of salvation we interlope
Oh Mary, Mother of Charity
You granted us God's abundant grace
Your genuine generosity we credit sincerely
Oh Mary, Mother of Prudence
You confirmed us that you are guided by God
Your sinlessness we adore with magnificence
Oh Mary, Mother of Justice
You imparted us God's impartial mercy
Your intercession we always please
Oh Mary, Mother of Fortitude
You showed us patience amidst God's trials
Your endurance we praise with servitude
Oh Mary, Mother of Temperance
You astounded us with your chastity before God
Your immaculate heart we want to glance.
