- Hymn to Saint Ann -

To kneel at thine altar, in faith we draw near,
Led onward by Mary, thy daughter so dear.

CHORUS: O Good Saint Ann, we call on thy name, Thy praises loud, thy children proclaim!

To all who invoke thee, thou lendest thine ear, Thou soothest the sorrows of all who draw near.

CHORUS

The sailor, the trav’ler whom storms make afraid, Find safety and calm when they call on thine aid.

CHORUS

The weary, despondent, or sorrowful here, Find help in their sadness, a balm for each tear.

CHORUS

The sick, the afflicted, the lame and the blind, The suff’ring, the erring, all solace here find.

 CHORUS

As pilgrims we come here to kneel at thy feet; O, grant what we ask thee, if for us ‘tis meet.

CHORUS

Saint Ann, we implore thee to list to our pray’r, In time of temptation, take us in thy care.

CHORUS

In this life obtain for us that which is best, And bring us at length to our heavenly rest.

CHORUS
