Saint Joseph=THE FATHER OF US ALL





THEFATHER OF US ALL---SAINT JOSEPH


He was
The Father of all Fathers
The Father of Jesus
Our Lord


The angel of the Lord
Appeared to Joseph


“Do not be afraid
To take Mary as your wife
Because what is conceived in her
Is from the Holy Spirit”


Are you serious Lord


Could you imagine
How you would react
How I would react
How anyone would react
To this---in today’s world


Joseph was a righteous man
He did not want
To expose Mary to public disgrace
So he stood by her


Then the angel
Told Joseph
To take the child and Mary---to Egypt
And he did this too


He was
A carpenter by trade
And as his human Father---
Along with Mary
Was responsible for developing the human traits and character
Of Jesus


Our Saint Joseph
A man of righteousness
A man of honor and faith
The Patron Saint of Fathers


Our Saint Joseph
Who stood tall
In the midst
Of it all


Our Saint Joseph
The Father of the Holy Family
Our Saint Joseph
The Father of the Universal Church


Our Saint Joseph
THE FATHER OF US ALL
