Mary Said “Yes!”

I’m still working through the music in the miscellaneous folder, which inevitably means revisiting liturgies from when my children were at school. This is a Michael Mangan advent song. You can hear a sample and buy the sheet music here.

Chorus

Mary said, “Yes, yes, yes! My Lord Your way is best!”

Mary said, “Yes, yes, yes! Your way is best!”

Verse 1

Gabriel appeared, a message to proclaim:

“Do not be afraid for you are blessed today!”

Chorus

Verse 2

“You will have a child, He’s the chosen One.

Jesus is His name and He will be God’s Son.”

Chorus

Verse 3

Mary wondered how, “How can this be true?”

Gabriel explained, “There’s nothing God can’t do!”

Chorus

Verse 4

Mary trusted God, she always obeyed,

We must do the same, so like her we can say,

Last Chorus

Oh we say, “Yes, yes, yes! My Lord Your way is best!”

Oh we say, “Yes, yes, yes! Your way is best!”
