Hymn to St. Rita

Glorious Name

Glorious name, our own St. Rita.

O glorious name, sweet name of love.

Through countless years, thy name forgotten,

thy children now thy grace implore.

O glorious name, our own St. Rita.

O glorious name, sweet name of love.


In faith we cast our heart's petitions.

O hear us as thou hast before.

Forgotten years of fragrant roses

for wonderers on this lonely shore.

O glorious name, our own St. Rita.

O glorious name, sweet name of love.


Through death to life, thy name shall guide us.

At Jesus' feet may we adore.

Our loyal hearts shall sing thy praises.

Today, tomorrow, evermore!

O glorious name, our own St. Rita.

O glorious name, sweet name of love!
