Gentle Mother, Peaceful Dove,
Peaceful,  help me that I'll be.
In my life  loving kindness,
Help me, Mother soon to see.

Show me Mother how to find,
Life's joys in its dismal days.
Show me Mother how to love,
And give to God his due praise.

Help me to love my neighbors,
The way that God wants me to;
When I find life a burden.
Then to God help me be true,

Of you I think highly of,
Gentle Mother, Peaceful Dove.
