Tu Trinitatis

Tu, Trinitatis Unitas (saec. VI?)

Latinam Tu, Trinitatis Unitas, orbem potenter qui regis, attende laudum cantica quae excubantes psallimus. Nam lectulo consurgimus noctis quieto tempore, ut flagitemus vulnerum a te medelam omnium. Quo, fraude quicquid daemonum in noctibus deliquimus abstergat illud caelitus tuae potestas gloriae. Te corde fido quaesumus, reple tuo nos lumine, per quod dierum circulis nullis ruamus actibus. Praesta, Pater piisime, Patrique compar Unice, cum Spiritu Paraclito regnans per omne saeculum. Amen.	English Thou, Unity of the Trinity, the world powerfully Thou doth rule, attend the songs of praise which we, keeping watch, sing with psalms. For from bed we rise in night's quiet time, that we may entreat of wounds from Thee the remedy of them all. By Thee, from whatever trickery of the demons in the nights we have failed, may the power of Thine glory wipe that off from heaven. Thee with a heart faithful we beseech, fill us with Thine light, through which in the days' cycles in no acts, may we fail. Grant this, Father most tender, and Only Equal to the Father, with the Spirit Paraclete reigning through every age. Amen.
