Mary’s School of Love

On the cross on Calvary,
A gift was given to all,
A spiritual Mother to teach us,
In her School of Love.

Mary full of grace and love,
Formed Jesus in her womb,
And wants to form us too,
In her School of Love.

When we give our lives to Mary,
She takes us to her Son.
She’s a gift that keeps on giving,
In her School of Love.

Mary points us to her Son,
Taking us deeper into his heart,
She invites us to fast and pray,
In her School of Love.
