HAIL HOLY QUEEN (SALVE REGINA) G. F. HANDEL 1707
(Intro)
Hail holy queen enthroned above, O Ma-ri-a
Hail mother of mercy and of love, O Ma-ri-a
Triumph all ye cherubim, sing with us ye seraphim
Heaven and earth resound the hymn
Sal-ve, Sal-ve, Sal-ve Re-gi-na
Our life our sweetness here below, O Ma-ri-a
Our hope in sorrow and in woe, O Ma-ri-a
Triumph all ye cherubim, sing with us ye seraphim
Heaven and earth resound the hymn
Sal-ve, Sal-ve, Sal-ve Re-gi-na
To thee we cry poor sons of Eve, O Maria
To thee we sigh, we mourn, we breathe, O Maria
Triumphâ¦
Turn then most gracious advocate, O Maria
Toward us thine eyes compassionate, O Maria
Triumphâ¦.
The cause of joy to men below, O Maria
The Spring through which all graces flow, O Maria
Angels all your praises bring,
Earth and heaven with us sing,
All creation echoing
Salve, Salve, Salve Regina!
