St. Eugene de Mazenod

(Lyrics by Fr. Jimmy del Rosario, OMI
Music by Gerry de Leon)

REFRAIN:
St. Eugene de Mazenod
Loving the most abandoned
You are sent to all the poor
Preaching the Gospel evermore.

1. Teach us to love Christ crucified.
With fervent hearts for the Church He saved.
You see Christ persecuted
among the poor neglected. (REF)

2. From being a sinner you became
A missionary preaching in God’s name.
You served the poor dejected,
The poor so precious in God’s eyes. (REF)

3. Gather men who would be Oblates
For God’s love to touch the desolate.
Guided by Mary Immaculate,
the world in God’s love illuminates. (REF)

CODA
St. Eugene de Mazenod
Loving the most abandoned
You are sent to all the poor
Preaching the Gospel evermore.
Preaching the Gospel evermore.
