Bring Flowers of the Fairest by Eduard Perrone — Lyrics
1. 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 to day,
Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.
2. Our voices ascending,
in harmony blending,
Oh! thus may our hearts turn, dear Mother to thee;
Oh! thus shall we prove theehow truly we love thee,
How dark without Mary life's journey would be.
