A Maiden Most Gentle Songtext
von Choir of King’s College, Cambridge

A maiden most gentle and tender we sing
Of Mary, the Mother of Jesus our King
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
How blest is the birth of her heavenly child
Who came to redeem us in Mary so mild
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
The archangel Gabriel foretold by his call
The Lord of creation and Saviour of all


Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Three kings came to worship with gifts rich and rare
And marvelled in awe at the babe in her care
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Rejoice and be glad at this Christmas we pray
Sing praise to the Saviour, sing endless Amen
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
