Religion
O Blessed Jesus
Translated by Eleanor Hull (1913) · From The Poem-Book of the Gael (1913)
Religion
O Blessed Jesus, and O Nurse of the fair white Lamb,
In the dread hour of death it is under your shelter I am;
Saints and angels about me in every time, in all places,
Leading my soul to the home of the King of the Graces.
