Roses O Roses
―A Rosary Song ![]() A garland
of roses, I give unto thee, O Mary my mother, I am thine My fingers they move, my fingers they tarry I think of the nails, the thorns He wore, One ruby of Blood would have sufficed, Such as a star, the night He was born,
Roses O roses, to thee do I bear... ―John Riedell

Properly understood, the Rosary is called a Gospel prayer, and of course is understood by God in any language. Although she speaks English, an older Erin Riedell of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, has participated in the Rosary in Spanish while travelling with relatives in Mexico and at the home of her Great Aunt Teresita Gonzalez in Orange Walk Town, Belize. She is shown here reading petitions at a Mass in Belize. Holding the microphone is Sr. Margaret, a friend of the Gonzalez family. |
