She May Be Called A Sovereign Lady Lyrics

She may be called a sovereign lady,
That is a maid and beareth a baby.

1. A maid peerless hath born God's Son;
Nature gave place
When ghostly grace
Subdued reason.
She may be called a sovereign lady,
That is a maid and beareth a baby.

2. As for beauty or high gentry, she is the flower,
By God elect,
For this effect,
Man to succour.
She may be called a sovereign lady,
That is a maid and beareth a baby.

3. Of virgins queen, lodestar of light,
Whom to honour
We ought endeavour
Us day and night.
She may be called a sovereign lady,
That is a maid and beareth a baby.
