Queen of Heaven

Queen of Heaven

Queen of heaven, show us the path we must follow

And crush the serpent’s head below

Protect all men, women, and children

Guide us to your Son, Queen of heaven

We are weary, toiling in this valley of tears

But with you as our guide, there is nothing to fear

Light our path, oh Morning Star

To where you and your Son are

For you are the moon in our soul’s night

Reflecting the sun’s glorious light

Queen of heaven, show us the path we must follow

And crush the serpent’s head below

Protect all men, women, and children

Guide us to your Son, Queen of heaven

Shower us with your gentle grace

And show us how to behold His glorious Face

In all that we think, do, and say

Dying to ourselves every single day

Standing fast against temptation and vice

Knowing that He paid such a heavy price

Queen of heaven, show us the path we must follow

And crush the serpent’s head below

Protect all men, women, and children

Guide us to your Son, Queen of heaven

Make our souls like a fertile land

Tended to by your loving hand

Hold us near and with your graces sow

Seeds of charity so that we may grow

Into a rose garden like no other

A gift to your Son from His dear mother

Queen of heaven, show us the path we must follow

And crush the serpent’s head below

Protect all men, women, and children

Guide us to your Son, Queen of heaven
