Latin

O salutáris hóstia,
Quae caeli panditóstium:
Bella premunt hostilia,
Da robur, fer auxilium.

Unit trinóque Dómino
Sit sempitérna glória:
Qui vitam sine térmiris,
Nobis donet in pátria. Amen.

English Translation

O saving Victim, open wide
The gate of heaven to man below!
Our foes press on from every side;
Thine aid supply, Thy strength bestow.

To Thy great Name be endless praise.
Immortal Godhead, One in Three!
O grant us endless length of days
In our true native land with Thee. Amen.
