Lyrics - The Seven Joys Of Mary by Lloyd


The
Seven
Joys of
Mary
The first good joy that
Mary had,
It was the joy of one,
To see her ownsome
Jesus
To suck at her breast-bone.
To suck at her breast-bone, good man,
And happy may you be,
O
Father,
Son and
Holy
Ghost,
And all eternity.
The seeond joy that
Mary had,
It was the joy of two,
To see her ownsome jesus
To make the lame to go.
The third joy that
Mary had,
It was the joy of three,
To see her ownsome
Jesus
As made the blind to see.
The next good joy that
Mary had,
It was the joy of five,
To see her ownsome
Jesus
As raised the dead to life.
The next good joy that
Mary had,
It was the joy of six,
To see her ownsome
Jesus
To bear the crucifix.
The next good joy that
Mary had,
It was the joy of seven,
To see her ownsome
Jesus
To wear the crown of
Heaven.
The next good joy that
Mary had,
It was the joy of ten,
To see her ownsome
Jesus
To write with a golden pen.
To write with a golden pen, good man,
And happy may you be,
O
Father,
Son and
Holy
Ghost,
And all eternity.note: an
English version.
