Burl Ives
The Seven Joys of Mary (Concluded)
[Verse 1]
The very next joy that Mary had
It was the joy of five
To see her own son, Jesus
To bring the dead alive

[Chorus]
To bring the dead alive
Praise God in the wilderness and glory be
Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
Through all eternity

[Verse 2]
The very next blessing that Mary had
It was the blessing of six
To see her own son, Jesus
Rise from the crucifix

[Chorus]
Rise from the crucifix
Praise God in the wilderness and glory be
Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
Through all eternity

[Verse 3]
The very next blessing that Mary had
It was the blessing of seven
To see her own son, Jesus
To wear the crown of heaven
[Chorus]
To wear the crown of heaven
Praise God in the wilderness and glory be
Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
Through all eternity
