O Salutaris Hostia

1. O saving Victim, open wide 
The gate of heaven to us below,
Our foes press on from every side;
Your aid supply, your strength bestow.

2. To your great name be endless praise,
Immortal Godhead, One in Three; 
O grant us endless length of days 
In our true native land to be. Amen.

 

 

1. O salutaris Hostia 
Quae caeli pandis ostium: 
Bella premunt hostilia, 
Da robur, fer auxilium.

2. Uni trinoque Domino 
Sit sempiterna gloria, 
Qui vitam sine termino 
Nobis donet in patria. Amen.
