On the Visit of the Relics of St Therese of Lisieux To England

St Therese, servant of God, gentle little flower, Shine on us your radiant light and guide us in this hour. All your suffering on Earth you bore unflinching, uncomplaining, Help us who now suffer here, stop our faith and love from waning. Teach us how to follow your humble 'Little Way', To do our best at everything and thank God every day. You vowed to spend your heaven on Earth, and let a shower of roses fall, Miraculous cures now speak of your worth, oh you great helper of us all. Now your relics leave Lisieux and journey to us for the faithful to see, Great St Therese, I will be one down on my knees, please pray for me.
