| Oh, little flower Thérèse
|
| Powerful, with pain, every need, body and spirit
|
| From the heart of God

|
| I beseech you
|
| Send me your majestic rain of roses
|
| So that I may share your grace

|
| Blooms of violet
|
| Blooms of buttercups
|
| Blooms of lilac
|
| Blooms of jasmine
|
| Blooms of hyacinth
|
| Blooms of honeysuckle
|
| Blooms of magnolia
|

| Let me be anointed with the splendor of their perfumed essence
|
| So that I may see the face of God in all people and all experiences
|
| Oh, my glorious sister Thérèse
|
| Prodigy of miracles
|
| Your petals unfurled

| Whisper to me
|
| Help me to always
|
| Trust as you did
|
| In God our Father’s great love for me
|
| So that in your fragrant path
|
| I might imitate your venerable little way
|
| And walk heroically
|
| Holding the blossom of grace with me each day
|
| Amen
|
| Let fall from Heaven, please, the Shower of Flowers
|
| Let me be anointed with the splendor of their perfumed essence
|
| So that I may see the face of God in all people and all experiences
