Debra Irsik Poet Rhyme

Blessed Mother

Blessed Mother


Blessed Mother you answered the call
Holy Mother of Jesus and of us all

It must have been hard to watch him grow to a man
Knowing that "He" was the sacrificial lamb

Did you call out to God to change the plan of salvation
To save your son over all creation

I feel your pain, your anguish and tears
The times you wanted to hide from your fears

To steal Him away, protect Him from fate
Begging the Father to let him escape

But deep in your heart you stayed true and strong
You knew to obey, to resist would be wrong

Knowing from the start, His destiny was set in stone
You raised and loved Him, though not truly your own


I honor you Holy Mother of God
I thank you for this rocky path you've trod

I pray to persevere in the trials I face
To use your model of love and grace


Debra Irsik
