This is the closest old one I can find, but while it's labelled as a Common Meter tune, the text of all verses don't all scan that way. Otherwise, WINCHESTER OLD would be perfect.

I cannot say whether this creation is solid, but it is an English hymn. Tune is named EDWARDSVILLE in honor of the Illinois hometown of my father, whose name is Joseph. I would welcome others' harmonizations and descants.

1. O glorious St. Joseph,
How great your soul, how strong,
In toil and dust how wise and just,
How true to God your song;
Observant of His Torah,
You knew His precious grace
And saw His light in tender brightness
Of Our Lady's face.

2. How peerless was that Maiden,
Our Galilean Queen!
For her your heart was set apart
In chastity serene,
And when her very body
Cast doubt upon her word,
An angel came to guard her name,
That you might guard Our Lord.

3. At Bethlehem your lantern
Met God within the straw;
In Egypt's flight, in anxious night,
A father's life you saw,
A life of stalwart goodness
And quiet sacrifice;
At final breath, a holy death
Was yours with Jesus Christ.

4.And now you stand in friendship
With archangelic throngs,
For still the fight for love and light
To Heaven's realm belongs;
O how you frighten Satan!
No evil can he do
When you arise to heed the cries
Of those who honor you.

5. When lure of clan is rising,
When we are weak with sin,
When those unborn meet scythe and scorn,
When demons taunt within,
Your arms are quick to seize us
And raise us high to greet
The Rose in bloom at our true home,
Our Lady, fair and sweet.

6. Arise for us, St. Joseph,
Arise for us today,
Your Church defend, good man, good friend,
And in your kindness pray
That this your house may flourish
And worthily may laud
The Holy Name the skies proclaim
Of Jesus, Son of God!

Why not the Cherry tree carol? It may be a carol and not a hymn, but it is rather pretty.

Nihil,

Where did you find this?

How's this?

|: Happy Joseph married best, Jesse's daughter, Virgin blest :|
Nature gasped and Heaven smiled, When the Virgin bore her Child.
Let God's marvels be confessed: Happy Joseph married best.

2. |: When first God, in gracious love, Pitied man from Heav'n above :|
He sent down His only Son, to become with sinners One
As a Babe at Mary's breast: Happy Joseph married best.

3. |: But when Joseph first perceived That the Virgin had conceived :|
He did not know what to say: tried to put his wife away,
Yet though angry and perplexed: Happy Joseph married best.

4. |: See the angel on him call, "Joseph, let your face not fall :|
'Tis the fruit of life hath filled Your sweet bride, as God hath willed:
Sinless she conceived and blest: Joseph, you have married best."

5. |: All the angels came to see Jesus in His infancy :|
Such a lovely company Raised their voices merrily;
With each Gloria professed: "Happy Joseph married best."

6. |: Let us pray with heart sincere, Humbly, that Our Lord might hear :|
for the peace that Mary knew, For such joy and sweetness, too --
Patron of a happy rest: Joseph, you have married best.

You just want to give me more work, Mr. Giffen!

I think we found Charles' favorite French Noël!

Also, Nihil, I marvel at your translation which was excellent. You are a man of many talents! (And languages, apparently!)

A church I did not know existed at the time, or no doubt I would have been there too.

I did Christmas morning at St, Louis en Îsle (the church on the other island right behind Notre Dame) because they had a brand new organ. I believe I was one of only 16? people, in the literal center of Paris. I also used to attend regularly at St. Sulpice where I’d be one of about 30 in a church that can comfortably hold 3,000. And of those 30, I was the only one who bothered to kneel at the consecration and I’d get dirty looks from people. Blew my mind.

I’ll never forget my first weekend there when I told my host mother I was leaving to go to Mass. her eyes became as big as saucers and she said with genuine shock in her voice,
“Tu vais aller à la Messe?!” (You’re going to mass?!)
“…ouais…” (…yes…)
“O… ok…”
*look of surprise and confusion in her face, and walked away*

This poor woman, who was, ostensibly, “Catholic” genuinely couldn’t fathom why I would be going to mass.
