QUEEN OF THE HOLY ROSARY
Queen of the Holy Rosary!
Oh, bless us as we pray,
And offer thee our roses
In garlands day by day;
While from our Father’s garden,
With loving hearts and bold,
We gather to thine honour
Buds white, and red, and gold
Queen of the Holy Rosary!
Each mystery blends with thine,
The sacred life of Jesus
In every step divine.
Thy soul was His fair garden,
Thy virgin breast His throne,
Thy thoughts His faithful mirror
Reflecting Him alone.
Sweet Lady of the Rosary!
White roses let us bring,
And lay them round thy footstool
Before our Infant King.
For nestling in thy bosom
God’s Son was fain to be
The Child of thy obedience,
And spotless purity.
Today the Holy Father will canonise John Henry Newman.
How about asking this new saint for some special grace on this the day of his elevation to the altars? Maybe some grace that we have been hoping and
praying for for a while. St. John Henry Newman, pray for us!
