Song to St. Joseph

Lyrics

In this world of hatred and fear
     We long to see the light
In the shadows of our lives
     And journey to Christ.

We come to you St. Joseph
     Our hearts filled with joy and ache
We run to you dear guardian
     And ask you lead us to His grace.

Protector of our Savior
     Come stand with us we pray
Teach us how to live
     To serve our Savior every day.
Lead us to God’s Son
     Who will heal our broken ways.
Protect this holy church
     Oh Joseph prudent, strong and chaste.

The first time you looked in His eyes
     And you saw He was the one
The maker of mountains so high
     God’s beloved Son.

We come to you St. Joseph
     As He let you hold His heart.
We run to you dear guardian
     Like He ran into your arms.

Protector of our Savior
     Come stand with us we pray
Teach us how to live
     To serve our Savior every day.
Lead us to God’s Son
     Who will heal our broken ways.
Protect this holy church
     Oh Joseph prudent, strong and chaste.
