Mother dearest, mother fairest
help of all who call on thee
Virgin purest, brightest rarest
help us, help, we cry to thee
Chorus: Mary, help us, help we pray
Mary, help us, help we pray
help us in all care and sorrow
Mary, help us, help we pray
Lady, help in pain and sorrow
Soothe those racked on bed of pain
May the golden light of morrow
Bring them health and joy again
