Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Seven Joys of Mary lyrics

The very first joy that Mary had, It was the joy of one To see her blessed Jesus When He was first her Son When He was first her Son. When He was Her first Son, Good Lord; And happy may we be, Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost To all eternity The next good joy that Mary had, It was the joy of two To see her own son Jesus, To make the lame to go. To make the lame to go. The next good joy that Mary had, It was the joy of three To see her own son Jesus, To make the blind to see. To make the blind to see. The next good joy that Mary had, It was the joy of four To see her own son Jesus, To read the Bible o'er. To read the Bible o'er. The next good joy that Mary had, It was the joy of five To see her own son Jesus, To bring the dead alive. To bring the dead alive. The next good joy that Mary had, It was the joy of six To see her own son Jesus, Upon the Crucifix. Upon the Crucifix. The next good joy that Mary had, It was the joy of seven To see her own son Jesus, To wear the crown of Heaven To wear the crown of Heaven
