Our Lady Star of the Sea
Ave Maris Stella - (Hail Star of the Sea)
Hail, thou Star of ocean, Portal of the sky ! Ever Virgin Mother Of the Lord most high ! Oh ! by Gabriel's Ave, Uttered long ago, Eva's name reversing, Stablish peace below. Break the captive's fetters ; Light on blindness pour ; All our ills expelling, Every bliss implore. Show thyself a Mother ; Offer Him our sighs, Who for us Incarnate Did not thee despise. 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. Through the highest heaven, To the Almighty Three, Father, Son, and Spirit, One same glory be. Amen. The intercessory prayer can be found on Catholic websites.
