Laudis Corona ‎#101

101. Hail, heavenly Queen

1 Hail, heavenly Queen! Hail, foamy ocean's Star,
Oh! be our guide, diffuse thy beams afar;
Hail, Mother of God, Above all virgins blest,
Hail, happy gate of heaven's eternal rest.

Chorus:
Hail, foamy ocean's star! Hail, heavenly Queen!
Hail, foamy ocean's star! Hail, heavenly Queen!
Oh! be our guide, to endless joys serene.
Oh! be our guide, to endless joys serene.

2 Hail, full of grace! With Gabriel we repeat;
Thee, Queen of Heav'n, from him we learn to greet;
Then give us peace, Which Heav'n alone can give,
And, dead thro' Eve, thro' Mary let us live. [Chorus]

3 Thy children save, O gracious Mother, hear!
From weeping eyes, oh, deign to wipe the tear!
Our humble prayers to God thy Son present,
Whose life and blood for sinful man were spent.
Hail, foamy ocean's star, etc.

4 Our souls in purity and grace preserve,
And ne'er from truth permit our way to swerve,
That, when our days have rolled their rapid round,
We may with Christ in heavenly bliss he crowned.
Hail, foamy ocean's star, etc.
