A Hymn

by J. Michael Thompson

Praise to You, O God of glory,
Source of beauty, grace, and light:
You have formed us as Your people
And have freed us in Your might.
Hear the song we raise to heaven,
Thanking You for Mary's love,
Pointing us to her Son, Jesus,
Gift of love sent from above.

Carmel's faithful sons and daughters
Sing of Mary's faithful care
Which she showers on her children,
Source of nurture free and rare.
Sharon's beauty, Carmel's splendor
You have made our Lady's part,
Which is far surpassed in glory
By her faithful mother's heart.

Glory be to God the Father,
Glory be to God the Son,
Glory be to God the Spirit,
God, the holy Three-in-One!
From the heart that heard and treasured
All that You have done and giv'n,
From Your Church which You have fashioned,
Praise that bridges earth and heav'n.
