Some to Mary bend the knee
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
Some to Mary bend the knee, Others unto Paul and Peter, I, however, I will worship, Sun of beauty, only thee. Kiss me, love me, dearest one, Be thou gracious, show me favor, Fairest sun among all maidens, Fairest maiden under sun.
