This is a song sung at the Mass of Saint Therese
Chorus
Dear St. Thérèse, will you please let fall a rose.
A petal of the flower
that you shower upon those,
who try to find the 'Little Way', and take the path you chose.
And if we stray along the
Way, please send another rose.
Verse 1
You gave up your will to God and lived without a sin.
Then God showed where He had
trod, so you could follow Him.
Then He helped to guide your pen through 'Story of a Soul'.
Help us choose your 'Little
Way', help to save our soul.
Chorus
Dear St. Thérèse, will you please let fall a rose.
A petal of the flower that you
shower upon those,
who try to find the 'Little Way', and take the path you chose.
And if we stray along the Way, please
send another rose.
Verse 2
You gave heart and soul and will to love the Holy Face,
And planned to spend your heaven
helping all the human race.
You have kept your promise, and you listen as we say:
Sister Thérèse, Little Flow'r, pray
for us today
Chorus
Dear St. Thérèse, will you please let fall a rose.
A petal of the flower that you
shower upon those,
who try to find the 'Little Way', and take the path you chose.
And if we stray along the Way, please
send another rose.
Verse 3
In the Carmel of Lisieux you suffered through poor health.
And in the storm of darkness
you rejected Satan's stealth.
And like the Infant Jesus, who saw you in your need,
You will help as He did, O Thérèse
we plead.
Chorus
Dear St. Thérèse, will you please let fall a rose.
A petal of the flower that you
shower upon those,
who try to find the 'Little Way', and take the path you chose.
And if we stray along the Way, please
send another rose.
End
Help us find the 'Little Way', and take the path you chose,
If we stray along the Way, please
send another rose.

Ever faithful sweet maid

While on earth you were still close to heaven.
In the realm of the great chosen few.

Shower

Help us follow your Little Way too.

Pray that someday we too may reach heaven
When at last this lifes journey is through.

Shower
down many roses upon us,
Help us follow your Little Way too.
St. Therese, Little Flower of Heaven
We bring our devotion
