HYMN Lyrics Text: When Creation Was Begun

1. When creation was begun,

God had chosen you to be,

Mother of his blessed Son,

Holy Mary, full of grace.

Ave, Ave, Ave, Maria.

2. When creation was restored,

You were there beside the Lord,

Whom you cherished and adored,

Holy Mary, full of grace.

Ave, Ave. Ave Maria

3. You are with us day by day,

In our joys and our dismay,

Make us joyful as we say,

Holy Mary, full of grace.

Ave, Ave, Ave Maria

4. Lead us to your child above

He will tecach us how to love

How to pity and forgive.

Holy Mary, full of grace.

Ave, Ave, Ave Maria.

5. In the vision which transcends

All our dreams and never ends

God will gather all his friends

In the kingdom of your son.

Ave, Ave, Ave Maria.

6. Praise the Father and the Son,

And the Spirit three in one,

As it was when time began,

Now and evermore, amen.

Ave, Ave, Ave Maria.
