Immaculate Mary!
Our hearts are on fire;
That title so wondrous
Fills all our desire!
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!

May His kingdom come;
We pray for His Vicar,
Our Father in Rome.
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!

The Church upon Earth,
And bless, sweetest Lady,
The land of our birth.
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!

And souls that now stray
From Jesus and Mary
In heresy’s way.
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!

5. For poor, sick, afflicted,
Thy mercy we crave;
And comfort the dying,
Thou light of the grave!
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!

6 ⁠In grief and temptation,
In joy, or in pain,
We’ll seek thee, our Mother,
⁠⁠⁠Nor seek thee in vain.
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!

8. ⁠O bless us, dear Lady,
With blessings from heaven,
And to our petitions
Let answer be given.
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!

9. ⁠Now to God be glory
And worship for aye,
And to God’s Virgin Mother,
An endless Ave.
Ave, Ave, Ave Maria!
Ave, Ave Maria!
