The words

Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)

Joseph built the doors and roof beams, strong and quiet, through and through,God sent an angel in a dream, Joseph did what God asked him to.

Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)He listened to God all along,his love spoke louder than words,Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)

Danger came to baby Jesus, and so God's angel was sent,Joseph didn't wait till morning, he got up in the dark and went.

Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)He listened to God all along,his love spoke louder than words,Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)

Every night he tucked Him in, with a kiss and stories too, Abraham and Moses, the heroes old and true.Jesus is God's own Son, sent from Heaven above, and God gave Him Joseph, to raise Him here with love.

Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)He listened to God all along,his love spoke louder than words,Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)

Listen to God, like Joseph did, say a little, love a lot,Saint Joseph, quiet and strong! (Quiet and strong!)Saint Joseph, pray for us! (Pray for us!)

The words in gold are the children’s part: the grown-up sings the line, the little ones shout the echo back.
