The mother of God was great with child; <br /> While she carried our Saviour so meek and mild; <br /> A woman of virtue never knew a man; <br /> Until after giving birth by Jehovah's plan; <br /> <br /> Conceived by the Holy Spirit in the seed of a woman; <br /> Jesus was both God and man as he trod the land; <br /> Son of a carpenter, prophet, priest and King of kings; <br /> Because Jesus is God who created everything; <br /> <br /> In the book of life Mary's name is written down; <br /> And she like us will one day wear a crown; <br /> Redeemed up in heaven so bright and fair; <br /> Saints, the righteous people will meet up there; <br /> <br /> It will be one great family, the nations of the earth; <br /> Who accepted Christ's righteousness, the new birth; <br /> Given freely to all who on the Saviour call; <br /> Our mediator and advocate now in the judgement hall; <br /> <br /> He loves you very much; <br /> Will you please get in touch; <br /> He is waiting up there; <br /> To hear a sinner's prayer.<br /><br />Bernice Hooks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mother-of-god/
