Author: Athelstan Riley, 1858-1945 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #180a (1986) First Line: Hail, O Star that pointest Lyrics: 1 Hail, O Star that pointest Towards the port of heaven, Thou to whom as maiden God for Son was given. 2 When the salutation Gabriel had spoken, Peace was shed upon us, Eva’s bonds were broken. 3 Bound by Satan’s fetters, Health and vision needing, God will aid and light us At thy gentle pleading. 4 Jesu’s tender Mother, Make thy supplication Unto him who chose thee At his Incarnation; 5 That, O matchless Maiden, Passing meek and lowly, Thy dear Son may make us Blameless, chaste and holy. 6 So, as now we journey, Aid our weak endeavour. Till we gaze on Jesus, And rejoice for ever. 7 Father, Son and Spirit, Three in One confessing, Give we equal glory, Equal praise and blessing. Amen.

He has been since 1892 a member of the House of Laymen of the Province of Canterbury. He was one of the compilers of The English Hymnal, 1906, and contributed to it seven translations from the Latin (34, 185, 193, 195, 213, 242, 321, with No. 97 previously published), and one from the Greek, beginning, "What sweet of life endureth," from Iiola rod fiiov, p. 899, i., and the following originals:— 1. Come, let us join the Church above. Martyrs. 2. Saints of God! Lo, Jesu’s people. St. Bartholomew. The initials of the lines form the acrostic Saint Bartholomew; it is really a general hymn for Apostles. 3. Ye watchers and ye holy ones. Universal Praise to God. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.] --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907)
