You are our earthly life.
Song
1. You are the guiding star of our earthly life, ; Our sweet hope, gracious Virgin Mary. ; The Son of God has appointed you as our good mother, ; Therefore we bless you with joy, oh Virgin Mary. ; ; 2. You are the star of hope on the sea of our life, ; You shine through the clouds of all sorrow and trouble. ; The Son of God has appointed you as our good mother, ; Therefore we bless you with joy, oh Virgin Mary. ; ; 3. You, like a star of hope, smile upon us, ; If we suffer patiently, trusting in God. ; The Son of God has appointed you as our good mother, ; Therefore we bless you with joy, oh Virgin Mary. ; ; 4. And when the twilight of our life has approached, ; You are the consoling evening star. ; The Son of God has appointed you as our good mother, ; Therefore we bless you with joy, O Virgin Mary.
