Latinam Christe, caelorum habitator alme, vita sanctorum, via, spes salusque, hostiam clemens, tibi quam litamus, suscipe laudis.
in polo temet benedicit alto, atque te sancti simul universi laudibus ornant.
atque cunctorum pariter piorum, contine poenam, pie, quam meremur daque medelam.
ut tibi fidi valeamus illam prosequi in caelis Triadi canentes iugiter hymnos. Amen. |
English O Christ, Dear Inhabitor of the heavens, life of the saints, the way, hope and salvation, this offering of praises, for Thee which we offer in sacrifice, Accept, O Clement One!
in the high heavens bless Thee, and, Thee, all the saints simultaneously honour with praises.
and also of all the Blessed, hold back the penalty, O Righteous One, which we deserve and give healing.
that to Thee the Trinity with stringed instruments we may be able to pursue to be in the heavens singing that and hymns unendingly. Amen. |
