Ava Maria Stella

Ava Maria Stella

Hail bright star of ocean,

God’s own Mother blessed,

Ever sinless Virgin,

Gate of heavenly rest.

Taking that sweet Ava

Which from Gabriel came,

Peace confirm within us,

Changing Eva’s name.

Break the captive’s fetters,

Light on blinders pour,

All our ills expelling,

Every bliss implore.

Show thyself a Mother;

May the Word Divine,

Born for us thy Infant,

Hear our prayers through thine.

Virgin all excelling,

Mildest of the mild,

Freed from guilt, preserve us,

Pure and undefiled.

Keep our life all spotless,

Make our way secure,

Til we find in Jesus

Joy forevermore.

Through the highest heaven

To the Almighty Three

Father, Son and Spirit

One Same Glory Be. Amen
