Dear Saint Joseph Lyrics
1. Dear Saint Joseph, pure and gentle, guardian of the Savior child, treading with the Virgin mother, Egypt’s deserts rough and wild.
Chorus: Hail, Saint Joseph, spouse of Mary blessed above all Saints on high, when the death-shades round us gather, teach, oh, teach us how to die.
2. He who rested on thy bosom is by countless Saints adored, prostrate Angels in his presence Sing hosannas to their Lord.
3. Now to thee no gift refusing. Jesus stoops to hear thy prayer, then, dear Saint, from thy fair dwelling, give to us a father’s care.
4. Dear Saint Joseph, kind and loving, stretch to us, a helping hand, guide us through life’s toils and sorrow, safely to the distant Land.
