Luke 1:42: The Fruit of Mary's womb
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
The Fruit of Mary's womb
Is bless'd, and that alone,
Whatever blessings come
From the eternal throne
Through Mary's Offspring we receive.
And happy in His life we live.
That holy Child bestow'd
On poor apostate man,
That everlasting God
Whom heaven cannot contain.
Source of our gracious joys He is,
And constitutes our glorious bliss.
