Chapter 55

MARY AT JESUS’ FEET.

Tohear the Saviour’s wordThe gentle Mary came;Low at His feet she sat and heardSweet mention of her name.She chose the better part,The one bright pearl she found:May we, with Mary’s constant heart,In Mary’s grace abound.Like her, we look above,To learn our Saviour’s will;The droppings of His lips we love,And would His word fulfil.Speak, as to Mary ThouDidst speak in Galilee;Call us by name, our hearts shall bow,And melting, flow to Thee.

Tohear the Saviour’s word

The gentle Mary came;

Low at His feet she sat and heard

Sweet mention of her name.

She chose the better part,The one bright pearl she found:May we, with Mary’s constant heart,In Mary’s grace abound.

She chose the better part,

The one bright pearl she found:

May we, with Mary’s constant heart,

In Mary’s grace abound.

Like her, we look above,To learn our Saviour’s will;The droppings of His lips we love,And would His word fulfil.

Like her, we look above,

To learn our Saviour’s will;

The droppings of His lips we love,

And would His word fulfil.

Speak, as to Mary Thou

Didst speak in Galilee;

Call us by name, our hearts shall bow,

And melting, flow to Thee.
