MARY, MEEK AND HUMBLE OF HEART

I have a special place in my heart for Mary, the mother of Jesus...aka...God...the Holy Spirit...or the Trinity.  The trinity is the acknowledgement of the Three in One. I offer this small poem in honor of the Blessed Mother of Christ.

*
ONCE IN ROYAL DAVID'S CITY
STOOD A LOWLY CATTLE SHED
WHERE A MOTHER LAID HER BABY
IN A MANGER FOR HIS BED
MARY WAS THAT MOTHER MILD
JESUS WAS HER LITTLE CHILD
*
HE CAME DOWN TO EARTH FROM HEAVEN
WHO IS GOD AND LORD OF ALL
AND HIS SHELTER WAS A STABLE
AND HIS STABLE WAS A STALL
WITH THE POOR, THE MEAN AND LOWLY
LIVED ON EARTH, OUR SAVIOR HOLY
*
 ALL THROUGH HIS WONDROUS CHILDHOOD
HE WOULD HONOR AND OBEY
LOVE AND WATCH THE LOWLY MAIDEN
IN WHOSE GENTLE ARMS HE LAY
CHRISTIAN CHILDREN ALL SHOULD BE
MILD, OBEDIENT, AS GOOD AS HE.
*
