And while to Him Who reigns above, In G.o.d-head 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 the children, pray for me.

THE BLESSED VIRGIN
Remember, holy Mary Memorare
St. Bernard Tr. Rev. M. Russell, S.J. from a Slovak Hymnal Adapted by N.A.M.
Moderato
1.
Remember, Holy Mary, 'Twas never heard or known That any one who sought thee And made to thee his moan, That any one who hastened For shelter to thy care, Was ever yet abandoned And left to his despair.
2.
And so to thee, my Mother, With filial faith I call, For Jesus dying gave thee As Mother to us all.
To thee, O Queen of virgins, O Mother meek, to thee I run with trustful fondness, Like child to mother's knee.
3.
See at thy feet a sinner, Groaning and weeping sore Ah! Throw thy mantle o'er me, And let me stray no more.
Thy Son has died to save me, And from His throne on high His heart this moment yearneth For even such as I.
4.
All, all His love remember, And oh! Remember too How prompt I am to purpose, How slow and frail to do.
Yet scorn not my pet.i.tions, But patiently give ear, And help me, O my Mother, Most loving and most dear.

THE BLESSED VIRGIN
Hear thy children, gentlest Mother
Children's Hymn to Our Lady Father Stanfield M. Haydn Arr. by N. A. M.
Moderato
1.
Hear thy children, gentlest Mother, Pray'rful hearts to thee arise; Hear us while our evening Ave Soars beyond the starry skies.
Darkling shadows fall around us, Stars their silent watches keep; Hush the heart oppress'd with sorrow, Dry the tears of those who weep.
