Lyrics

Chorus:
Mama Mary help me be open,
to let the light shine through me;
Mama Mary teach me obedience,
make me transparent like you.

1 Behold the handmaid of God,
May all your heralds come true;
in him alone I am satisfied,
forever blessing his name.

2 My soul rejoices in God,
His work has blossomed in me;
in him alone I am satisfied,
forever blessing his name.

KEEP IN CASE ORIGINAL IS REMOVED, BUT DO NOT DISPLAY
Chorus:
Mama Mary help me be open,
to let the light shine through me;
Mama Mary teach me obedience,
make me transparent like you.

1 Behold the handmaid of God,
May all your heralds come true;
in him alone I am satisfied,
forever blessing his name.

2 My soul rejoices in God,
His work has blossomed in me;
in him alone I am satisfied,
forever blessing his name.
