The Assumption

In beautiful choruses, angels sing
A song for honor and love
In a glorious rise, mother to the king
Enlightens skies above

The virgin mother of God's only son
Is lifted up with brand new birth
Of who she is and what she's done:
Given life to to his presence on earth

Lifted up body and soul because
Such purity of intent
In treasure of mortals like she once was
Into heaven this hailed woman is sent.

Happy Assumption of Mary!!! Just went to church and got inspired for this during all the songs we sung in Mary's honor: and for such a special occaison, I resurrected the every-other-line-rhyming, which I said I PROBABLY wasn't going to do. Oh, well, this was a special case.
