  1. My mother told me to say this prayer every day to my patron Saint.
    Oh happy Saint whose name I bear
    To heaven convey my humble prayer
    Holy Saint Ellen pray for me
    The joys of heaven that I may see
    And reign with Thee eternally
    Amen
    Infant Jesus meek and mild
    Suffer me a little child
    Pity my simplicity
    Suffer me to come to Thee.
