O Come to the Throne of Grace ============================= w&m: Attr. to Mother Joan Sweetman, RSCJ (before 1954) [Verse 1] O come to the throne of grace, O come to the heart most pure! To Mary, our hope of life, In whom salvation is sure! [Refrain] O Queen of the Rosary, hail! Immaculate Mother of grace; O pray for us, help us today, Thou hope of the human race! [Verse 2] Immaculate Heart! we kneel To consecrate all to thee: The present, its pain and joy, The future, all it may be. [Refrain] [Verse 4] The Rosary, white and gold, We take from thy Virgin hand; A pledge of the pow'r of God To heal and strengthen our land. [Refrain] [Verse 5] O Mother of Sorrows, hail! We mourn for the evil done. O soften our selfish hearts, And lead us back to thy Son. [Refrain] --- {Additional Verses} [Verse 3] The sun at thy royal word Spun 'round like s splendid toy; The rose petals show'ring down Proclaimed thee Cause of Joy. [Verse 6] O Mother of all mankind, Lead Russia back home again, That over a peaceful world Thy heart may graciously reign.
