Hail, Virgin, Dearest Mary 17

Adapted from Rev. L. L.
 
1 Thy Children humbly bending, Surround thy shrine so dear;
With heart and voice ascending, Sweet Mary hear out prayer.
2 Behold earth's blossoms springing In beauteous form and hue;
All nature gladly baring Her Sweetest charms to you.
3 We'll gather fresh, bright flowers, To bind our fair Queens brow;
From gay and verdant bowers, We haste to crown thee now.
4 And now, our blessed Mother, Smile on our festal day,
Accept our wreath of flowers, And be our Queen of May.
