Mary's Choice

Mary's Choice

A Poem by Anne Korhonen

Your heart is filled with amaze
as your kind eyes gaze
appearance of a bright angel
God's promise Gabriel
who pushed you into new destiny
You were chosen because you were faithful and humble
By stuttering voice you mumble
"Yes, God's will shall happen"

Oh, Mary with child's mind
you left peace and happiness behind

God bless you Mary
hope inside your womb you carry
All the women shall praise your name
Your path will never be the same
It is the path of heaven and kings
Of your heart filled with bliss and aching
You brave mother of Messiah
as predicted in the book of Isaiah

You have been written in the stars
The Three Wise Men saw it from afar
and wanted to come to bow
your child who shall promote the low
Oh Mary behold
they brought Him incense, myrrh and gold
Herode asked
your secret to be told
but the Persian ended their task

Mary your journey is so long
God protects you, nothing goes wrong
You'll be safe in Egypt
in the land of sphinx and crypts
You wasn't prepared and didn't know
because the Holy Ghost didn't show
Your child to die for us in painful way
but the grave was empty on the Third Day
