HAIL HOLY QUEEN

Mother of mercy
Hail!
Our life, our sweetness and our hope
To you do we cry
Poor banished children of Eve
To you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears
Turn then most gracious advocate
Your eyes of mercy towards us
And after this our exile
Show unto us
The blessed fruit of your womb Jesus
O Clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary

Pray for us, O holy mother of God
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit...
