O Hail, Holy Virgin

Words: Robert Loretz
Music: Traditional
This adaptation of the Lourdes Hymn has been made especially for the Church in Oceania, as it mentions the first bishop of Oceania Bishop Pompallier who was ordained in Lyons, thus linking the Church in Oceania to a line of bishops that can be traced back to St. Ireneaus and thus to St. John the Apostle. If it were used in other continents, it may need that verse removed but most of the verses could be used anywhere and are especially suited to a Marian procession or for a recessional on any Marian feast day. Selected verses might also be useful between the mysteries of the Rosary.
