Mother Loved

Mary, hear my fervent prayer.
Take me 'neath thy care;
O Mother loved, be my life, my stay,
Guide and love me, save and protect me,
'Till the dawn of eternal day
Mary, hear my fervent prayer,
Take me 'neath thy care;
O mother loved, be my life, my stay.

O Mother loved, watch over me,
So helpless, tossed on life's rough sea;
Kindly shed from heaven above
A Mother's sweet fond smile of love.

O Mother loved, watch over me,
From sin and danger keep me free;
When temptation's waves angry flow,
Thyself to me a mother show.

O Mother loved, watch over me,
When life is bright and fair to see;
Who so need thy clear guiding ray
As those that walk the flow'ry way.
