Bring Flowers of the Rarest

Bring Flowers of the Rarest is a beautiful Catholic hymn to celebrate May, the Month of Mary. Sr Therese CFR sings to Our Lady and adds actions as well to help children, schools and families enjoy the Marian hymn.

Bring flowers of the fairest, bring flowers of the rarest,

From garden and woodland, and hillside and vale;

Our full hearts are swelling, our glad voices telling

The praise of the loveliest Rose of the vale.

O Mary! we crown thee with blossoms today,

Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May,

O Mary, we crown thee with blossoms today,

Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.

Our voices ascending, in harmony blending,

Oh! thus may our hearts turn, dear Mother, to thee;

Oh! thus shall we prove thee how truly we love thee,

How dark, without Mary, life's journey would be.

O Mary! we crown thee with blossoms today,

Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May,

O Mary, we crown thee with blossoms today,

Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.

O Virgin most tender, our homage we render,

Thy love and protection, sweet Mother, to win;

In danger defend us, in sorrow befriend us,

As pure as the lilies we lay at thy feet

O Mary! we crown thee with blossoms today,

Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May,

O Mary, we crown thee with blossoms today,

Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.
