A child just turned a woman, became the chosen one,

To hold the Son of God within – to be her firstborn Son,

An ordinary child was she – a lowly servant girl,

Extraordinary things would happen, for her and all the world,

Through Mary’s contemplation of this exalted state,

She knew that God was faithful, and she would simply wait,

She trusted every word she heard through Gabriel’s angel voice,

A message from Jehovah, God, had blessed her with this choice,

Her faith remained, yet she was scared, what would her family say,

She thought of her intended groom, and her own wedding day,

But still within that quiet night, acceptance filled her soul,

Though fear remained she trusted God, to use her for His goal.

To bring to man forgiveness from every single sin.

Fulfill His word of promise and make all clean within.

Oh for a faith like Mary had, to trust without a doubt,

That she would be the vessel for what God would carry out,

He uses those like you and me, to work His glorious will,

We’re all just ordinary folks, but He can use us still,

The Holy Spirit will be there, igniting flames of trust,

Within the hearts and souls of men, for He is good and just.
