Lady, as thy name we ponder,
Surely thou wilt hear our prayer;
We are frail and apt to wander,
And we need maternal care.
We are wayward and unwary,
Lightly do we faithless prove;
Yet we are thy children, Mary,
And we live in thy heart's love.
If the world advise us wrongly,
And we trust its siren lay,
Lady of Good Counsel, strongly
Right us, ere we go astray.
When the ills of life have tried us,
And we sorely need a friend,
Lady of Good Counsel, guide us
Safely, surely to our end.
So whatever need o'ertake us,
Lady, still we look to thee.
May thy counsel ever make us,
Such as God would have us be.
