Tributo a Santa Rosa de Lima
Paróquia Santa Rosa de Lima (by Lucio Marciano/Wellington Campos)
Tribute to Saint Rose of Lima
Virgin who surrendered to God.
She became a prisoner of Love.
Rose planted by Christ in America to spread the fragrance of heaven.
Rose who knows what it means to be Latino.
With calloused hands, marks of hard work.
Princess of this new world, who doesn’t deny the poor her favor.
Example of a young woman, example of a lady.
Great in charity, a model of faith.
Flower of holiness, faithful worshiper of the Blessed Bread,
the child-God who crowned you from your Mother’s lap.
Hail Saint Rose, hail adornment of the Church!
Hail Saint Rose, hail our patroness.
Oh saint of Lima, bless our families and help us reach heaven.
