I think my favorite line concludes the second verse:
"Por tu gran virtud, fuiste digno custodio de la luz."
"Through your great virtue, you were the dignified guardian of the light."
Hymn to Saint Joseph
Today at your feet, we put our life -
Today at your feet, Glorious Saint Joseph.
Hear our prayer and through your intercession
we will obtain peace of heart.
we will obtain peace of heart.
In Nazareth next to the Holy Virgin -
In Nazareth, Glorious Saint Joseph,
You took care of the child Jesus because through your great virtue
you were the dignified guardian of the light.
you were the dignified guardian of the light.
With simplicity humble carpenter -
With simplicity, Glorious Saint Joseph,
You labored well, worker of the Lord
offering work and prayer.
You had faith in God and His promise -
You had faith, Glorious Saint Joseph.
Teacher of Prayer obtain for us the gift
to listen and follow the voice of God.
