Blessed Mother Help Us
Help us to be courageous,    
Blessed Mother Mary dear,
Help us in searching for truth,
In our hearts have it adhere.            

*To God, Mother, draw us close,    
And to your beloved Son,
He wants the truth known to us,
And the things that he wants done.

Times when we are not at peace  
Peace, have Jesus give to us,
Mother, help make our minds sharp,
And our souls be glorious.      

God's will for us, help us know,
When we talk, wise help us be:  
Our souls like yours dear Mother,
Help them be ones of beauty.  

Whatever God wants of us,
Help us to be aware of.
When unloving then we are,
Mother show us how to love.

Help us Mother in our lives,
So holiness we'll pursue,
We open our hearts to you,              
Blessed Mother dressed in blue.

Breakfast Bell
The thunder of a snowstorm,
Caused a dresser come to shake,
An alarm clock fell off it,
For the sound was like a quake.

On a chute that led outside,
Is where the clock came to land;
The snow dusting on the clock,
Then had started to expand.

The alarm was still in tact,
When it was time, ring it did;
It shook off the snow dusting,
An awoke mouse ran and slid.

It was now time for breakfast,
So to the barn the mouse went;
Hhen will he wake tomorrow,
Went the alarm is absent?
Dear Blessed Mother keep eye,
Over my friend, Mary Anne,
The way you lived in holiness,
This way, show her how she can.

Help my friend Mary Anne see,
How to please God every day,
Help her so she'll know God's will,
With wisdom, please guide her way.

Help her to use time wisely,       
Ask God to give her his peace.
Help her to find joys in life,
That will increase and not cease.

Watch over, my treasured friend,
Needed help to her extend.

Help Us, Lord, In Living
Human life, oh loving Lord,
You wonderfully have made:
Each one Lord deserves respect,
Lives,Lord, help us not invade.
                                                         ­  
Help us Lord to love others,
Like you show your love for us:
When we need help in learning,
Wisely, Lord, with us discuss.

Dear Lord, be our protector,
From the devil help us flee:
Keep us far from life's dangers.    
Help us on heaven's journey,

Help us, Lord, reach paradise,
Where with you, we'll always be:
Help us lead others to you,
Dear Lord, please set our hearts free.

Heaven
In God's heavenly, kingdom,                      
Peaceful everything will be:              
We'll be with saints and angels,            
And God for eternity.      

It's an eternal haven,                              
From miseries on the earth,                  
We'll be with God forever,  
And joys there will have no dearth.              

Let's live as God commands us,
And peaceful our lives can be,    
Earth has its pains and troubles,    
In heaven they'll no more be.

Jesus Help Us Be Grateful
From when life starts at conception,
And continues during one's life.
Every life, help us to value,
When we are confronted with strife.

We give thanks to you dear Jesus,
For all that you have done for us,
Put tranquility in our hearts,
Keeping from our hearts all ruckus,                

Thank you, Jesus, for your coming,
Please help us with our attitude:
For it's when we love everyone,
We show to you our gratitude.                  

Like you Jesus help us to love,
With kindness and much TLC,
It's when we treat others like you,
A much better world then we'll see.

Show Me Mother How To Live
Dear Mother of Jesus Christ,
Close to Jesus help me stay.
God's will, Mother, help me do.
Guide me and show me the way.

Dear Blessed Mother Mary,
When your help I'm in need of,
Bestow on me your wisdom,
And bountifully your love.

Help my heart be forgiving.
Grudges help me never hold.
Warm my heart with your sweet love.
Never let my heart get cold.

To Jesus' heart draw me close.
This request I ask of thee.
Help me daily Mother dear,
To live a life that's holy.

Life's Crosses
Lord, it was on Good Friday,
For us you were crucified:
To show how much you love us,
On Calvary there you died.

When crosses are hard to bear
Our lives Lord will you then touch?
Lord, then help carry the weight,
And to us it will mean much.

When we find life burdensome,
Others help us to think of.
Give us the strength and courage,
So we can give them our love.

Help us with life's crosses, Lord
Lead us to heaven's reward.
Show us how we are to love,
Dear Blessed Mother Mary;
Ask Christ to help us in need,
When we've crosses to carry.

Help us to be more like you.
God's will help us to pursue;          
To God help us draw close,
In all that we say and do.

In life when we need help most.
Ask Jesus to give us it.
Our lives help us live for God,
Help us do good and not quit.

Mother, help us be loving.
Peace in life help us to find;
When others are mean to us,
Show us how we can be kind.

Jesus, lighten life's burdens,
When they are too much to bear;
Help us be truly loving,
Like you, help us also care.

Bring true joy into our hearts,
And help us find peace of mind;
Help us be understanding,      
And help us to live lives kind.  

Jesus, be the living Spring,
Who washes our sins away.
Be our bright light and sunshine,
To help us see night and day.

True happiness and joy bring,
Jesus, our Eternal King,

auxiliary verb

The road that leads  to  heaven,
Promises hope but is narrow.
By living as God wants us,
In holiness we will grow.

When we stray off the road,
God can help us to return:
To show respect for others,
And also show them concern.

The Ten Commandments are signs,
That are found on heaven's road.
Showing us how we're to live,
To us wisdom they've bestowed.

Heaven's road worldly is not,
But it's by staying on it,
Despite troubles we may face,
We'll find joys if we don't quit.

The road thast leads to heaven,
Is a wise road to travel.
This road will lead us to God.
There's no asphalt or gravel.
