[Salvation]

Hail to you, O Queen, mother of loving kindness,

  our life, our happiness, our hope.

Hear us cry out to you,

  children of Eve in our exile.

Hear as we sigh, with groaning and weeping

  in this life, this valley of tears.

Come then, our Advocate, turn towards us

  the gaze of your kind and loving eyes.

And show us Jesus, the blessed fruit of your womb,

  when at last our exile here is ended.

[Salvation]

Perhaps someone has this in chant to celebrate St. Gregory the Great??

[MaggieCarta]

I am looking (without success, yet) for a chant on the web for you, Salvation. But, I did find a cake

Martha Stewart has nothing on the lady that baked this.

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

Is Stabat Mater an official part of the Catholic lexicon?

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

Is Stabat Mater an official part of the Catholic lexicon?

[Salvation]

The Stabat Mater is often sung with the Stations of the Cross. Selected verses — because there are so many.

I especially treasure the one:
At the cross her station keeping,

Don’t know the next line right now, but I know it ends in “weeping.”

[Straight Vermonter]

I'm not aware that there is an official Catholic Lexicon but it is pretty well known.

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

At the cross her station keeping
Stood the mournful mother weeping
Close to Jesus to the last

Dvorak’s Stabat Mater is just exquisite.

[Salvation]

Thanks for the full verse.

I love singing it with the Stations of the Cross during Lent.
