I'm sick of living here on earth, <br />O Mary, heal my soul; <br />O Virgin Mother, who gave birth <br />To Jesus, mend my role! <br /> <br />The odds against me are countless, <br />Give me my victory; <br />Life's walk is now a run reckless, <br />Give me a sanctuary. <br /> <br />When heaven chose you to be Queen, <br />You put your trust in God; <br />How glorious was Assumption scene! <br />You are now with the Lord. <br /> <br />O Holy Virgin full of grace, <br />Help me to walk with Christ; <br />I want the Savior to embrace, <br />Help me shun sins accursed. <br /> <br />Above all saints, O blessed one, <br />You crushed the Serpent's head; <br />O Mary crowned with stars and sun, <br />Pray for me when I'm dead. <br /> <br />You knew the cross, on which Christ hung, <br />Much better than us all; <br />You stood the test and stand among, <br />The angels, saints, so tall. <br /> <br />O Mary, pray for us sinners, <br />And take us to heaven; <br />Show us the way to be winners <br />On earth and say, ‘Amen!
