Far above enthroned in glory

Sweetest Saint of Erin’s Isle

See thy children kneel before thee

Turn on us a Mother’s smile.

Sancta Mater, hear our pleading

Faith and hope and holy love

Sweet St. Brigid, Spouse of Jesus,

Sent to us from Heaven above.

Sweet St. Brigid, Erin’s children,

Far and near o’er land and sea

In the world and in the cloister

Fondly turn with love to thee.

Sancta Mater, sooth the mourner

Shield the weary tempted soul

Sweet St. Brigid, guide thy children

To thy bright and happy home.

 

A bounty of butter, honey, and sweet cream.
