1	Hail, holy Joseph, hail! Chaste spouse of Mary, hail! Pure as the lily flower In Eden's peaceful vale! Hail, holy Joseph, hail! You were God's chosen one: To you the Word made flesh Was subject as a Son.
2	Hail, holy Joseph, hail! O friend of angels, hail! Assist the hearts that faint And guide the steps that fail. Hail, holy Joseph, hail! Pricne of the house of God, May His best graces be By your dear hands bestowed.
3	Hail, holy Joseph, hail! Teach us our flesh to tame. And, Mary, keep the hearts That honor Joseph's name; He loved you with a love Of holy purity: We pray that we may be As pure in love as he.
