Full Lyrics
Ave Maria 'tis the hour of prayer,
And quiet reigns o'er earth and sky and ocean,
The chime of bells falls on the charmed air.
Awakening thoughts of peace and calm devotion.
Ave Maria.
Oh! snatch an hour from earthborn toil and care,
And let thine heart on spirit wings ascending,
Pour forth the tide of mingled praise and prayer,
With neverceasing songs of angels blending.
Ave Maria.
