The game was not the one-sided display that many pundits had predicted, with Lamh Dearg gamely staying in touch with the former All-Ireland champions for much of the 60 minutes.
St Gall's led by 0-9 to 0-7 at the break, but Paddy Cunningham reduced the margin to a single point after the break.
However St Gall's pulled away again with scores from the McGourty brothers Kieran and Conor, and ultimately held on to claim a 0-14 to 0-11 victory.
Meanwhile on Sunday, Crossmaglen and Ballymacnab Round Towers booked their places in the Armagh senior Football Championship final with wins over Pearse Ogs and and Granemore St Mary's respectively.
