Find hymn on ONE LICENSE

1 Hail, holy Queen enthroned above, O Maria.
Hail, Queen of mercy and of love, O Maria.
Triumph, all ye cherubim;
Sing with us, ye seraphim.
Heav'n and earth resound the hymn:
Salve, salve, salve, Regina!

2 The cause of joy to us 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.

3 O gentle, loving, holy one, O Maria.
The God of light became your Son, O Maria.
Triumph, all ye cherubim;
Sing with us, ye seraphim.
Heav'n and earth resound the hymn:
Salve, salve, salve, Regina.
