Behold, Your Mother

In presenting a brief history of hymns from the earliest monastic offices through such well-known sequences as the "Lauda Sion", "Veni Sancte, Spiritus" and "Stabat Mater", it is hoped that the present, new sequences may also inspire deep love for Christ and Our Lady, thus combining deep faith with devotion. The 137 sequences may be sung to Gregorian Chant melodies--the "Stabat Mater", "Lauda Sion" and "Dies Irae" in the Liber Usualis. It is ardently anticipated that the Maternal Mediation of Mary as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate be solemnly defined as the fifth and final Marian Dogma of the Roman Catholic Church, ushering in the great Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
