O Mary of all women, you are the chosen one, Who, ancient prophets promised, would bear God’s only Son; All Hebrew generations prepared the way to thee, That in your womb the God-man might come to set us free.
O Mary, you embody all God taught to our race, For you are first and foremost in fullness of his grace; We praise this wondrous honor that you gave birth to Him Who from you took humanity and saved us from our sin.
