Hymn to St. Brigid

Far above enthroned in glory Sweetest Saint of Erins Isle See thy children kneel before thee Turn on us a Mothers 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, Erins children, Far and near oer 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.
