Title: GLORIOUS FATHER, DEAR SAINT JOSEPH Post by: Shin on March 19, 2014, 09:39:48 PM GLORIOUS FATHER, DEAR SAINT JOSEPH Glorious Father, dear Saint Joseph, Throng we round thy shrine to-day; For the sake of Jesus take us Neath thy guardianship for aye. Once like us He called thee Father, Teacher, helper, guard and guide; Once like us He sought for safety At His Father Joseph's side. CHORUS. Then as round thy shrine we gather, Consecrating every heart, Take us for thy children, Father, And thy blessing fond impart. Herod sought the Child to slay Him, But through thee He safety found; Still the demon seeks the children, Thou wilt still His arts confound. Keep us pure as thine own lily In baptismal blood-bought grace; If we fall, dear Father, help us By our tears sin to efface. Take us, then, beloved Father, Thine own children e'er to be; Neath thy blessed eyes here daily We will do our tasks for thee. Lessons, prayer, or play we ll give thee, Each in its allotted time, "All for Jesus, Mary, Joseph!" Make of each an act sublime!

O St. Joseph do assist me by your powerful intercession and obtain for me from your Divine Son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, Our Lord; so that having engaged here below your Heavenly power I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most Loving of Fathers. O St. Joseph, I never weary of contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. I dare not approach you while He reposes near your heart. Press him in my name and kiss His fine Head for me, and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, Patron of departing souls, pray for us.
