Lyrics:

Most gracious Mary, Queen of Peace
Embrace us with your love;
May our desire sincerely be,
To praise our God above.

Implore for us the spirit’s gifts
To follow in your way;
Let wisdom and humility,
Guide all we do and say.

In confidence we witness Christ,
Whose truth has set us free.
May we pursue what leads to peace,
For all humanity.
