Mother dearest, Mother fairest
Help of all, who call on thee
Virgin purest, brightest, rarest
Help us, help, we cry to thee
Mary help us, help we pray
Mary help us, help we pray
Help us in all care and sorrow
Mary help us, help we pray
Lady, help in pain and sorrow
Soothe those rack'd on beds of pain
May the golden light of morrow
Bring them health and joy again
Mary help us, help we pray
Mary help us, help we pray
Help us in all care and sorrow
Mary help us, help we pray
Lady, help the absent loved ones
How we miss their presence here
May the hand of thy protection
Guide and guard them far and near
Mary help us, help we pray
Mary help us, help we pray
Help us in all care and sorrow
Mary help us, help we pray
