Ave Maris Stella words

In the Name of the Father
And of the Son
And of the Holy
Spirit
Amen
First
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus Christ!
Eternal Sweetness to those who love Thee, joy surpassing all joy
and all desire, Salvation and Hope of all sinners, Who hast proved
that Thou hast no greater desire than to be among men, even
assuming human nature at the fullness of time for the love of men,
recall all the sufferings Thou hast endured from the instant of
Thy conception, and especially during Thy Passion, as it was
decreed and ordained from all eternity in the Divine plan.
Remember, O Lord, that during the Last Super with Thy disciples, having washed their feet, Thou gavest them Thy Most Precious Body and Blood, and while at the same time Thou didst sweetly console them, Thou didst foretell them Thy coming Passion.
Remember the sadness and bitterness which Thou didst experience in Thy Soul as Thou Thyself bore witness saying: “My Soul is sorrowful even unto death.”
Remember all the fear, anguish and pain that Thou didst suffer in Thy delicate Body before the torment of the Crucifixion, when, after having prayed three times, bathed in a sweat of blood, Thou wast betrayed by Judas, Thy disciple, arrested by the people of a nation Thou hadst chosen and elevated, accused by false witnesses, unjustly judged by three judges during the flower of Thy youth and during the solemn Paschal season.
Remember that Thou wast despoiled of Thy garments and clothed in those of derision; that Thy Face and Eyes were veiled, that Thou wast buffeted, crowned with thorns, a reed placed in Thy Hands, that Thou was crushed with blows and overwhelmed with affronts and outrages.
In memory of all these pains and sufferings which Thou didst endure before Thy Passion on the Cross, grant me before my death true contrition, a sincere and entire confession, worthy satisfaction and the remission of all my sins. Amen

Second
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus! True
liberty of angels, Paradise of delights, remember the horror and
sadness which Thou didst endure when Thy enemies, like furious
lions, surrounded Thee, and by thousands of insults, spits, blows,
lacerations and other unheard-of-cruelties, tormented Thee at
will. In consideration of these torments and insulting
words, I beseech Thee, O my Savior, to deliver me from all my
enemies, visible and invisible, and to bring me, under Thy
protection, to the perfection of eternal salvation. Amen
Third
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Creator of Heaven and earth Whom nothing can encompass or limit,
Thou Who dost enfold and hold all under Thy Loving power, remember
the very bitter pain Thou didst suffer when the Jews nailed Thy
Sacred Hands and Feet to the Cross by blow after blow with big
blunt nails, and not finding Thee in a pitiable enough state to
satisfy their rage, they enlarged Thy Wounds, and added pain to
pain, and with indescribable cruelty stretched Thy Body on the
Cross, pulled Thee from all sides, thus dislocating Thy Limbs.
I beg of Thee, O Jesus, by the memory of this most Loving
suffering of the Cross, to grant me the grace to fear Thee and to
Love Thee. Amen.
Fourth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Heavenly Physician, raised aloft on the Cross to heal our wounds
with Thine, remember the bruises which Thou didst suffer and the
weakness of all Thy Members which were distended to such a degree
that never was there pain like unto Thine. From the crown of
Thy Head to the Soles of Thy Feet there was not one spot on Thy
Body that was not in torment, and yet , forgetting all Thy
sufferings, Thou didst not cease to pray to Thy heavenly Father
for Thy enemies, saying “Father forgive them for they know
not what they do.”
Through this great Mercy, and in memory of this suffering, grant that the remembrance of Thy Most Bitter Passion may effect in us a perfect contrition and the remission of all our sins. Amen.

Fifth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Mirror of eternal splendor, remember the sadness which Thou
experienced, when contemplating in the light of Thy Divinity the
predestination of those who would be saved by the merits of Thy
Sacred passion, Thou didst see at the same time, the great
multitude of reprobates who would be damned for their sins, and
Thou didst complain bitterly of those hopeless lost and
unfortunate sinners.
Through this abyss of compassion and pity, and especially through the goodness which Thou displayed to the good thief when Thou sadist to him: “This day, thou shalt be with Me in paradise.” I beg of Thee, O Sweet Jesus, that at the hour of my death, Thou wilt show me mercy. Amen.
Sixth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Beloved and most desirable King, remember the grief Thou didst
suffer, when naked and like a common criminal, Thou was fastened
and raised on the Cross, when all Thy relatives and friends
abandoned Thee, except Thy Beloved Mother, who remained close to
Thee during Thy agony and whom Thou didst entrust to Thy faithful
disciple when Thou sadist to Mary: “Woman, behold thy
son!” and to St. John: “Son, behold thy Mother!”
I beg of Thee O my Savior, by the sword of sorrow which pierced the soul of Thy holy Mother, to have compassion on me in all my affliction and tribulations, both corporal and spiritual, and to assist me in all my trials, and especially at the hour of my death. Amen
top l
Seventh
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Inexhaustible Fountain of compassion, Who by a profound gesture of
Love, said from the Cross: “I thirst!” suffered from
the thirst for the salvation of the human race. I beg of
Thee O my Savior, to inflame in our hearts the desire to tend
toward perfection in all our acts; and to extinguish in us the
concupiscence of the flesh and the ardor of worldly desires.
Amen
Eighth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Sweetness of hearts, delight of the spirit, by the bitterness of
the vinegar and gall which Thou didst taste on the Cross for Love
of us, grant us the grace to receive worthily Thy Precious Body
and Blood during our life and at the hour of our death, that they
may serve as a remedy and consolation for our souls. Amen
Ninth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Royal virtue, joy of the mind, recall the pain Thou didst endure
when, plunged in an ocean of bitterness at the approach of death,
insulted, outraged by the Jews, Thou didst cry out in a loud voice
that Thou was abandoned by Thy Father, saying: “My God, My
God, why hast Thou forsaken me?”
Through this anguish, I beg of Thee, O my Savior, not to abandon me in the terrors and pains of my death. Amen
top l
Tenth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Who art the beginning and end of all things, life and virtue,
remember that for our sakes Thou was plunged in an abyss of
suffering from the soles of Thy Feet to the crown of Thy Head.
In consideration of the enormity of Thy Wounds, teach me to keep,
through pure love, Thy Commandments, whose way is wide and easy
for those who love Thee. Amen
Eleventh
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Deep abyss of mercy, I beg of Thee, in memory of Thy Wounds which
penetrated to the very marrow of Thy Bones and to the depth of Thy
being, to draw me, a miserable sinner, overwhelmed by my offenses,
away from sin and to hide me from Thy Face justly irritated
against me, hide me in Thy Wounds, until Thy anger and just
indignation shall have passed away. Amen
Twelfth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Mirror of Truth, symbol of unity, link of Charity, remember the
multitude of wounds with which Thou was covered from head to foot,
torn and reddened by the spilling of Thy adorable blood. O
great and universal pain which Thou didst suffer in Thy virginal
flesh for love of us! Sweetest Jesus! What is there
that Thou couldst have done for us which Thou hast not done! May
the fruit of Thy sufferings be renewed in my soul by the faithful
remembrance of Thy passion, and may Thy love increase in my heart
each day, until I see Thee in eternity, Thou Who art the treasury
of every real good and every joy, which I beg Thee to grant me, O
sweetest Jesus, in Heaven. Amen
top l
Thirteenth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
Strong Lion, Immortal and Invincible King, remember the pain which
Thou didst endure when all Thy strength, both moral and physical,
was entirely exhausted, Thou didst bow Thy head, saying: “It
is consummated!”
Through this anguish and grief, I beg of Thee Lord Jesus, to have mercy on me at the hour of my death when my mind will be greatly troubled and my soul will be in anguish. Amen
Fourteenth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus! Only Son
of the Father, splendor and figure of His substance remember the
simple and humble recommendation Thou didst make of Thy Soul to
Thy Eternal Father, saying: “Father, into Thy Hands I
commend My Spirit!” And with Thy body all torn, and
Thy Heart broken, and the bowels of Thy mercy open to redeem us,
Thou didst expire. By this precious death, I beg of Thee O
King of Saints, comfort me and help me to resist the devil, the
flesh and the world, so that being dead to the world I may live
for Thee alone. I beg of Thee at the hour of my death to
receive me, a pilgrim and an exile returning to Thee. Amen
Fifteenth
Prayer
Our Father – Hail Mary.
O Jesus!
True and fruitful Vine! Remember the abundant outpouring of
Blood which Thou didst so generously shed from Thy Sacred Body as
juice from grapes in a wine press.
From Thy Side, pierced with a lance by a soldier, blood and water issued forth until there was not left in Thy Body a single drop, and finally, like a bundle of myrrh lifted to the top of the Cross, Thy delicate flesh was destroyed, the very Substance of Thy Body withered, and the Marrow of Thy Bones dried up.
Through this bitter Passion and through the outpouring of Thy precious Blood, I beg of Thee, O Sweet Jesus, to receive my soul when I am in my death agony. Amen
O Sweet Jesus! Pierce my heart so that my tears of penitence and love will be my bread day and night; may I be converted entirely to Thee, may my heart be Thy perpetual habitation, may my conversation be pleasing to Thee, and my the end of my life be so praiseworthy that I may merit Heaven and there with Thy saints, praise Thee forever. Amen

Promises To Those Who
Sing:
“Ave Maris Stella”
During a riot at Rome, a mob came to the house where St. Bridget lived; a leader talked of burning Bridget alive. She prayed to Our Lord to know if she should flee to safety. Jesus advised her to stay: “It doesn’t matter if they plot Thy death. My power will break the malice of Thy enemies: if Mine crucified Me, it is because I permitted it.” Our blessed Mother added: “Sing as a group the AVE MARIS STELLA and I’ll guard you from every danger.”
Hail
thou star of ocean
Portal of the sky
Ever virgin Mother
Of the Lord Most High
O!
by Gabriel’s Ave,
Uttered long ago,
Eva’s name
reversing,
Established peace below
Break
the captives’ 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.
