AT morn --- at noon --- at twilight dim --- Maria! thou hast heard my hymn!
In joy and woe --- in good and ill --- Mother of God, be with me still!
When the Hours flew brightly by, And not a cloud obscured the sky, My soul, lest it should truant be,
Thy grace did guide to thine and thee ; Now, when storms of Fate o'ercast Darkly my Present and my Past,
Let my Future radiant shine
With sweet hopes of thee and thine!
