Hail, Thou Star of Ocean Hail, thou star of ocean! Portal of the sky! Ever Virgin Mother of the Lord most high! Break the Captive's fetters, Light on blindness pour, All our ills expelling, Every bliss implore. Virgin of all virgins! To thy shelter take us! Gentlest of the gentle! Chaste and gentle make us. Still as on we journey, Help our weak endeavor; Till with thee and Jesus We rejoice forever. Mary, Dearest Mother Mary, dearest Mother, From thy heavenly height, Look on us thy children Lost in earth's dark night. Mary purest creature, Keep us free from sin, Help us erring mortals, Grace in Heaven to win. Mary, Queen and Mother, Get us till more grace; With still greater fervor Now to run our race. Daughter of the Father, Lady kind and sweet; Lead us to our Father, Leave us at His feet. Holy Queen of Angels, Bid thine Angels come, To escort us safely To our heavenly home. Bid the Saints in Heaven, Pray for us their prayers; They are thine dear Mother, That thou may'st be theirs. REV. FR. W. FABER O Mary, My Mother So Tender O Mary, my Mother so tender, so sweet, In all my afflictions, I run to thy feet; Thy heart is so gentle, so loving, so mild, Thou canst not reject thy poor suppliant child. O holy Mary, let me come, Soon to be happy with thee in thy home. O Mary, my Mother, I long so to see The glory thy Son has bestowed upon thee; That Heaven of glory, so purely thine own The reward which thy spotless purity won. O holy Mary, let me come, Soon to be happy with thee in thy home. O Mary, my Mother, sweet Mother most mild, Remember how Jesus bequeathed me thy child; Secure me 'midst dangers from enemies free, And lead me at death up to Jesus and thee. O holy Mary, let me come, Soon to be happy with thee in thy home.

She is mighty in her pleading, Tender in her loving care; Ever watchful, understanding, All our sorrows she will share. Advocate and loving mother, Mediatrix of all grace: Heaven's blessings she dispenses On our sinful human race.
