🎵 “A Little of Mary”


🎶 Verse 1
In my quiet little corner,
Where the sunlight warms the wall
I feel Our Lady in my heart
And I’m not afraid at all

A statue carved from ancients stone
A cross of  olive wood
A prayer that finds its voice again
In silence understood


---

🎶 Verse 2
A stone from far-off seas
A rosary from Malta’s shore
A candle lit from Notre-Dame
And Mary's love once more

A picture of the child I was
And sacred water blessed
These pieces hold my memories
They bring my soul to rest


---

🎶 Chorus
It’s my chapel, my small grace
Where the world slows down its pace
In the garden, ‘neath the cherry tree
She watches over me
A fallen angel at her side
In my garden of prayer I hide


---

🎶 Verse 3
I’d forgotten how I loved them
These symbols soft and true
Now I hold a cross each morning
A gift from someone who
Sees the faith I sometimes lose
And gives me peace anew


---

🎶 Final Chorus (gentler)
This is my chapel, my still light
Where daybreak meets the quiet night
With Mary’s eyes and angel’s face
I find again my sacred place
And in her silence, I can see
The little bit of her in me


---

🎶 Outro (spoken or whispered)
It’s wonderful there…
That little bit of Mary…
That lives in me.
