1
St. Genevieve our patron
In Paris you were born
So young and yet so holy
Your sainthood is a boon.

2
The bayou people love you
In Lou’siana Shores
We’re proud of your affection
Your prayers are much our own.

(Interlude)

3
From Laurent to Mainegra
Along the Bonfouca
From Dixie Ranch to Badon
To Bayou Liberty

4
The message of the Gospel
You lived it all your life
Your faith and way of trusting
A pattern of our life.

(Interlude)

5
St. Genevieve our patron
We love you with our hearts
Keep praying for your people
Always remember us

6
Praise God for these our blessings
Praise God and bless His name
St Genevieve we owe you
This BAYOU FAITH from you
