Great and glorious St Patrick Lyrics

Chorus: Great and glorious Saint Patrick,

Pray for your dear children,

Great and glorious Saint Patrick

Hearken to the prayers of your children.

1. Hibernia’s champion saint all hail,

With fadeless glory crowned.

The offspring of your ardent zeal,

This day your praise shall sound.

2. Borne on the wings of charity.

To Erin’s coast you flew,

Bade Satan from her valleys flee,

And his dark shrines O’er threw.

3. Woundering thro’errors gloomy right,

Our sires did lose their way,

You cheer’d their hearts with heavenly night,

With truth’s consoling ray.

4. Oh what a harvest crown your toil,

The earth long curs’d was blessed

Each lovely virtue graced its soil,

The sinner’ heart find rest.
