OUR LORD AND OUR LADY

They warned Our Lady for the Child That was Our Blessed Lord, And She took Him into the desert wild, Over the camel's ford.

And a long song She sang to Him And a short story told: And She wrapped Him in a woolen cloak To keep Him from the cold.

But when Our Lord was grown a man The Rich they dragged Him down, And they crucified Him in Golgotha, Out and beyond the Town.

They crucified Him on Calvary, Upon an April day; And because He had been her little Son She followed Him all the way.
