Diamond Jubilee of the Church of Our Lady of Fatima
"Journeying with Our Blessed Mother to Her Son"
Diamond Jubilee Thanksgiving Hymn
Sung to the tune of "As the Dewy Shades of Even"
Through these sixty years we’ve journeyed
With you, Mother, to your Son;
Now we gather here to bless you:
Take our thanks for all you’ve done.
Come plague or flood, in every trial
With you, Mother, we stay blest;
Sad or glad, whate’er the future,
May we in God’s favour rest.
For our priests both past and present
And their lives of selfless care;
For our volunteers and leaders
Here we raise our thankful prayer.
On our parish, on our families
Father, let Your blessing fall;
Bless our schools and bless our children;
Bless our migrants, bless us all.
