Hymn to Father Barré
De vos enfants, exaucez la priére
Veillez sur nous O Saint Pére Barré
Choisissez-vous un essaim d’ouvrières
Par le Seigneur à votre attirée
Dans L’institut, conservez d’âge en âge
Un zèle ardent, l’humilité, la foi
Le pur amour, la force et le courage
Pour observe à jamais votre loi (2x)
O hear our prayer, most holy Father Barré
We are your children, watch o’er us we pray
Touch many hearts to follow in your footsteps
To dedicate their lives to youth and poor
Drawn by the Lord to make Christ known and loved
Fill us with zeal, humility and faith
Pure love and strength and courage without fear
To keep your spirit alive in our hearts (2x)
