IN MARY'S SCHOOL

In the school of Mary,

I learn humility.

To walk alongside Jesus,

With fidelity.

My Mama trains me daily,

To seek the narrow way,

That leads to my Redeemer,

So I will never stray.

In the school of Mary,

My soul learns to be still,

She helps me recognize His voice

So I can do His will.

The first of Christ's disciples,

Teaches me to pray,

To put the needs of others,

Ahead of mine each day.

My Mama has the power,

To crush the serpent’s head,

God’s highly favored daughter,

Makes Satan quake in dread.

Like a child I lay my head,

On Mama Mary’s breast,

Enfolded in her loving arms,

My soul finds perfect rest.
