Lyrics Sample 

Mary, Mary, what a surprise!

Don’t believe it? Rub your eyes!

Mary, Mary, sit right down:

Listen to the angel.

Mary, Mary, listen to me.

I have news to bring you see.

Mary, Mary, you will be

Mother to a baby.

Mary, Mary, what a surprise! ... (etc.)

Mary, Mary, don't be afraid.

God is with you every day...
