Quas tibi laudes

Latinam Quas tibi laudes ferimusque vota, nos tuis possint meritis iuvare, Martha, quam mire sibi corde iungit Christus amico. Te frequens visit Dominus tuaque in domo degit placida quiete ac tuis verbis studiisque laetans teque ministra. Tu prior fratrem quereris perisse, cumque germana lacrimata multum, aspicis vitae subita Magistri voce redire. Quae fide prompta stabilem fateris spem resurgendi, Domino probante, impetra nobis cupide in perenne pergerer regnum. Laus Deo Patri, Genitoque virtus, Flamini Sancto parilis potestas, gloriam quorum petimus per aevum cernere tecum. Amen.

English To thee praises which we bring with prayers, us may thine merits be able to assist, Martha, whom marvelously to His heart heart joined Christ, as a friend. To thee the frequenting Lord visited and in thine house he spent time in placid quiet and in thine words and efforts He was rejoicing and in thee as attendant. Thou leading, Thou lament thine brother's perishing and with sister wept much, Thou observe among those who came for life's Master's voice to respond. Which in faith ready Thou confess a steady hope in the future rising, when the Lord probed, Obtain for us eagerly, into the everlasting kingdom, we may be proceeded! Praise to God the Father, and to the Begotten be strength, to the Holy Flame be equal power, whose glory we desire through time to see with thee. Amen.
