Hil Dig, Havets Stjerne,
Stjerne, klare, milde,
Redningsblus paa Verdens
mørke Vover vilde!
Stærke Lys i Natten,
alle Blindes øje,
[hil Dig, Havets]1 Stjerne,
hjælp, Guds Moder høje!
Hjælp os Vej at finde
hjem til Ham, hvem alle
vaadestedte Sjæle
dybt til Fode falde!
Hil Dig, Havets Stjerne
med din Søn tilsammen,
[med vor Sol]2, Alverdens
Gud og Frelser!
Amen.
