Some Hymns
During lent I like to learn new prayers. Here's a hymn I really like and would like to learn. I'm not saying I'll learn it for lent, but I might. I think I'll post the words to a few good hymns to this site that I'd like to memorize.
Hail Queen of heaven, the ocean starGuide of the wander here below;
Thrown on life's surge we claim thy care
Save us from peril and from woe.
Mother of Christ, Star of the sea,
Pray for the wander, pray for me
O gentle chaste and spotless maid
We sinners make our prayers through thee;
Remind thy Son that He has paid
The price of our iniquity.
Virgin most pure, Star of the sea,
Pray for the sinner, pray for me.
Sojourners in this vale of tears
To thee, blest advocate, we cry;
Pity our sorrows, calm our fears,
And soothe with hope our misery.
Refuge in grief, Star of the sea,
Pray for the mourner, pray for me.
And while to Him who reigns above
In Godhead One, in Persons Three,
The source of life, of grace, of love,
Homage we pay on bended knee:
Do thou, bright Queen, Star of the Sea,
Pray for thy children, pray for me.
