St. Cecilia my beloved....

Poem—27 

Feast Day on 22nd November

Oh Saint Cecilia My Beloved …….

Oh, St Cecelia my beloved....

Oh, St. Cecelia, God’s Heavenly dove,

Holy martyr of God’s Eternal Kingdom

God sent you to save the sinners for his eternal glory,

As a burnt offering to the Lord our Saviour

            The fires came down from heaven,

            To sanctify your body and soul for His Eternity

            As a sweet smelling sacrifice to our Lord

            We offer you, in the Alter of our God Almighty

Oh, St. Cecelia, our patron saint of music

Pray for us and teach us the way, of praising God

Pray for me to make music to our God

Till the end of my days, in this mortal world

            The mountains are singing in the silence of the night

            The rivers are singing with the roaring sound

            The birds, beetles and nightingales are singing with joy

            As we join with you, by singing and praising God

Oh, fearless lady and wonderful teacher,

Of heavenly soul of Truth, Jesus our Lord

Let heaven and earth praise His Majesty

For such a wonderful gift from His Mighty Throne

Oh, beautiful virgin of God’s own Temple

And a mirror in graces of our heavenly Mother

Pray for us, oh, heavenly dove, heavenly dove

And guide us the way, to His Eternity

           

Lord, let heaven and earth are rejoicing with such wonderful gifts of saints, you are giving us to experience your kingdom. We give thanks to you and glorify you till the end of our days in this world Amen!
