Virgin Of Virgins


Virgin Of Virgins
By Paul McCann


Virgin of Virgins of our Catholic faith ,
We pray that you would keep your children safe .
Shied us every day ,
from the dangers that are there
and free our footsteps from the evil snare  .


Virgin of Virgins so full of grace ,
Its hard to climb all the mountains we face ,
If we are on the edge and just about to fall ,
reach out and help all  those who call .


Virgin of Virgins there is no end ,
to the devotion for ever we send ,
Prayers and Novenas and rosaries too ,
Virgin of Virgins we honour you  .


Virgin of Virgins when we’re attacked ,
we know that you are there at our back .
Help us to remain ever close to you ,
for there is no doubt
our  faith is strong and true .

Virgin of Virgins there is no end ,
to the devotion for ever we send ,
Prayers and Novenas and rosaries too ,
Virgin of Virgins we honour you  .

Mother Of Songs




Mother Of Songs      
By Paul McCann


Mother of songs that were sung long ago
in some foreign tongue everyone did know,
When many voices joined in as one
To worship and pray as each day begun .

Mother of songs that are sung here today
In different tongues that have so much to say .
We sing and we praise , the message’s the same   
All languages shall bless and know your name    .

Mother Of Traveler’s



Mother Of Traveler’s    

By Paul McCann

Mother of traveler’s and refugee’s assist all those 
on the road today or in  boats afloat or in aero plane’s that fly  .

Mother of traveler’s all over the world
 protect the volunteers and doctors who are working beyond where safe frontiers lie .

Mother of traveler’s protect their journey from danger
and we trust you will bring your children back home where their family is near   .

Mother of traveler’s make easy the way 
for the disabled and aged and those who have special needs or equipment and gear . 

Mother of traveler’s bring calm in the storm 
or a bell that rings out an alarm  where ever there is a life at risk somewhere .

     Mother of traveler’s be the navigator 
for all those people who get lost on their way home.


Mother Mary hear my prayer 


Mother Of Travelers

Mother Of The Orphan



Mother Of The Orphan  
By Paul McCann


Mother of the orphan answer my prayer , 
for all of those children with no parents to care .  
I place In your arms and inside your heart , 
those who need comforted when their world falls apart .

Mother of the orphan is their a chance 
to alleviate the victims of circumstance  
who are the products of drugs or countries at war, 
or because of famine or a dictators power .

Mother of the orphan open the door  
to those who never had a family before , 
with a brother or sister to talk to 
or a Mum and Dad to help them all their life  through .

Mother of the orphan , we’re not alone ,

 for we always have you in your  heavenly home , 
so make us a place where we can feel safe
 and no one is left out , like an unwanted waif  .
