Incarnation Mother

God’s Spirit gave Christ His human soul divine,
you, Mary, formed His human body side,
your “yes” made your own womb God’s holy shrine,
you bore, raised, followed, saw God crucified.

You loved Him all those years so I will too,
He loved you most and no doubt always will,
He named you from His cross my Mother true,
I pray these mysteries on your Rosary still.

Your Son made Himself Eucharist for me,
with Him I take your body too, your blood,
we worship Christ as God, we all agree,
but honoring you, His grace comes in a flood.

Some call you Mediatrix of All Grace,
O Incarnation Mother I embrace.
