Saint Ann's Tower, Dorchester, Massachusetts

At the end of Ashmont Street where the shadows lie,
Stands Saint Ann's Tower reaching for the sky.
Built in nineteen twenty, a red brick embrace,
A Roman basilica, a holy resting place.
With a Venetian bell tower, tall and proud,
It sings its timeless hymn, calling the crowd.

[Chorus]
Oh, Saint Ann's Tower, ring out your chime,
Every hour a reminder, a moment in time.
At noon you sing a song that fills the air,
A melody of grace, a whisper of prayer.
Each note that resounds, each echo divine,
Guiding our hearts, your love we will find.

[Verse 2]
Tight against the sidewalk, where the traffic flows,
Neponset Ave's rhythm, where the world never slows.
But beneath the blue sky, in your sacred space,
A stone statue of Mary, wrapped in your grace.
People pass by, lost in the race,
But I pause for a moment, feeling your embrace.

[Chorus]
Oh, Saint Ann's Tower, ring out your chime,
Every hour a reminder, a moment in time.
At noon you sing a song that fills the air,
A melody of grace, a whisper of prayer.
Each note that resounds, each echo divine,
Guiding our hearts, your love we will find.

[Bridge]
And I wonder as I walk, beneath your sacred shade,
Will a brick fall from the tower, and claim a sinner made?
In the shadows of doubt, in the light of faith,
Reminding us all, we are never out of grace.

[Chorus]
Oh, Saint Ann's Tower, ring out your chime,
Every hour a reminder, a moment in time.
At noon you sing a song that fills the air,
A melody of grace, a whisper of prayer.
Each note that resounds, each echo divine,
Guiding our hearts, your love we will find.

[Outro]
So I walk through this life, with you by my side,
In the spirit of love, in the faith we abide.
Saint Ann's Tower, with your voice so clear,
In your song of the hour, I know you are near.
