The Narrow Gate
Parents
Blessed are they who bore you Mary
For with love and hope you did they carry
How blessed are they who did not see
Blessed because of they you bore He
Prophets too never got so close as these
Only in Heaven their Father’s joy they now receive
Blessed are the many who truly longed
As too your parents who are now gone
How blessed and righteous were they
To have only faith and trust of you who would one day bore God’s Son in barn hay
Prophets no your parents were not
But wondrous yes because of their daughter and Whom she begot
Amen to you O parents of Eve
Because of you it is a blessed eternity that we may someday receive
Amen
