Hi
I am desperately looking for the complete lyrics the song called 'Ode to Mary' performed by Mark Mallett. Please I would really appreciate it as some of the words are quite difficult to make out while listening to the words.
Thanks
Simone

Lyrics for Ode to Mary
Hello, Simone. The first two verses and the refrain of Mark Mallet's lyrics were posted here (song #8):

I tried to finish the lyrics for you by listening to the full song (purchased from iTunes). But the first line of the third verse is not easy to understand – same trouble you had! I urge you to write to Mark to ask him for the correct lyrics: http://store.markmallett.com/about/
Ode to Mary
© Mark Mallett
When I was born many years ago
You were there to greet my cry
Fruit of my mother’s womb
You became the Mother of my life
I was baptized, beneath your eyes
With the Father, Spirit and your Son
Full of grace... I turned my face
Oh, your work had just begun
Hail Mary, Hail Mary,
Mary, mother to me
Hail Mary, Hail Mary,
You are the Queen of my life.
I confess: haven't been the best
Despite that you've been true
You pray for sinners, you pray for me
Guess the Lord must be with you
Haven't always seen nor understood
Your role in eternity
But of all the saints and of all the souls
A woman blessed be
Hail Mary, Hail Mary,
Mary, mother to me
Hail Mary, Hail Mary,
You are the Queen of my life.
Someday I'll be at the hour of death
I'll be on my way
To be with Jesus evermore
And with him I will stay
Hail Mary, Hail Mary,
Mary, mother to me
Hail Mary, Hail Mary,
You are the Queen of my life.
