Hymn to St. Joseph
Let’s sing the name of Joseph the father’s image on earth.
To him the Lord confided his gems of precious worth.
The son of the eternal the Virgin Mother of God.
Most privileged of fathers that ever this earth has trod.
We praise thee, best St. Joseph the perfect model of men.
The weary work man’s sunshine that brings him joy again
How great if we are chosen another Joseph to be.
To work for Christ in silence and true humility
To work for Christ in silence and true humility.
O St. Joseph
Once I have seen a child in a manger,
sleeping in peace embraced by a mother
and there stood a man of great patience
watching still the child humble and mild.
Chorus
O St. Joseph humble and mild,
You gave yourself to comfort me and the child.
Angels from high singing their praises
Shepherds awakened by heavenly voices
Come and see the child in his little manger giving gifts of love.
Proclaim him divine.
O Foster Father of the Lord
(Tune of “Bunying Anak ni David”)
O foster father of the Lord, great guardian of our Savior,
Spouse of the Virgin Mary, treasure of humility.
