    1. A Mother's Prayer.
    O, Queen of Angels, give ear to my pleading.
    I earnestly ask you to heark to my call.
    God's innocent- children, O Many, Sin fearing
    Where they run in life's race, that they'll slip - maybe fall.
    Wont you let them join hands in "ringa-a-rosies" around you. I know they'll be safe when they're under our care.
    Of your chastity, wisdom, and love, oh my Mary, wont you see that they all have an extra big share?
    Oh, ne'er let the Devil's dread Angels waylay them, keep them ever immaculate, pure as the snow.
    Dear Mother of Jesus, I know you are listening.
    You'll lie near to watch o'er them wherever they go.
    2. Beneath the Cross.
    Light from the face of Jesus shine down upon me.
    Eyes of Jesus smile on me.
    Lips of Jesus speak to me.
    Hands of Jesus hold me.
    Feet of Jesus walk beside me.
