\"On this day, O Beautiful Mother\"
"On This Day, O Beautiful Mother" was one of my favorite May hymns when I was a child. At Guardian Angel in the early '50s, we sang the first stanza only.
We sang the first two stanzas of "'Tis the Month of Our Mother." I loved the chorus: All hail!
to dear Mary, the guardian of our way, To the fairest of Queens, Be the fairest of seasons, sweet May!
Sweet May was the fairest month.

The most important hymn at May crownings was "Bring Flowers of the Rarest". We sang only the first stanza and the chorus. It was during the chorus that the May Queen placed the wreath of flowers on the head of the statue of the Queen of the May: O Mary, we crown thee with blossoms today, Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.
"Mother Dear, O Pray for Me" and "Mother Dearest, Mother Fairest" were no longer sung
