Mother Of The Poor

Mother of the poor ensure your assistance to all those

who must beg and borrow or go without .

Mother of the poor look favourably on all the homeless,

Who sleep in the cold and get knocked about . 

Mother of the poor help all those who are dressed in rags

and find for them somewhere fine garments to wear    .

Mother of the poor as the hungry endure to live each day ,

give them comfort in knowing you care  .

Mother Of Understanding

By Paul McCann

Mother of understanding I would gladly give ,

Each hour of each day and every moment I live

Because you have shown me by your heavenly power

an understanding of just who you really are   .

Mother of understanding you hear what I say

and when I pray to you I know you’ll find a way

to answer me and to tell me that you’re always there

 because you understand everything and you care  .

Mother of understanding some have done me wrong

and have harmed me and made me feel I don’t belong

because they don’t understand me and what I say .

I’m so blessed to know you’re there Mother , every day .  

Mother of understanding and powerful too

How encouraging to know you know what is true   .

You see what is right and you will try for my sake

to bring justice and take away all the heart ache     .

Mother of understanding everything I do

my whole life through is to honour and to praise you ,

Thank you for understanding me when no one can 

listen or support me or try to lend a hand .

Mother Of Mothers   

By Paul McCann

Mother of Mothers all over the earth

in the miraculous moment of birth ,

be there to reveal who you really are near

as we kneel before your heavenly power    .

Mother of Mothers we look up to you

and ask your protection on all those who

are united by the family ties

witnessed and sealed before your very eyes  .

Mother of Mothers each child is a gift , 

what a wonder as we reach out to lift ,

into our arms and then into our heart

the innocence of new life from the start .

Mother of Mothers in all the proceeds

of the bonding times between the night feeds ,

make it a time to share a prayer with you

and may that continue our whole life through      .
