524 – O Gracious Savior, Who Didst Honor

Gracious Savior, who didst honor Womankind as woman’s Son; Very Man, though God begotten, And with God the Father One; Grant that womanhood may be Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.

Jesus, Son of human mother, Bless our motherhood, we pray; Give them grace to lead our children, Draw them to Thee day by day; May our sons and daughters be Dedicated, Lord, to Thee.

Thou Who didst go forth in sorrow, Toiling for the souls of men, Thou Who shalt draw all men to Thee, Though despised, rejected then; Humble tho our influence be, Use it in the world for Thee.
