CHRISTE, redemptor omnium,
conserva tuos famulos,
beatae semper Virginis
placatus sanctis precibus.
Beata quoque agmina
caelestium spirituum,
praeterita, praesentia,
futura mala pellite.
Vates aeterni iudicis
apostolique Domini,
suppliciter exposcimus
salvari vestris precibus.
Martyres Dei incliti
confessoresque lucidi,
vestris orationibus
nos ferte in caelestibus.
Chori sanctarum virginum
monachorumque omnium,
simul cum sanctis omnibus
consortes Christi facite.
Sit Trinitati gloria,
vestrasque voces iungite
ut illi laudes debitas
persolvamus alacriter. Amen.

Most dear Redeemer of us all,
Protect your servants in their need,
Accept the Blessed Virgin's prayers,
Who deigns for us to intercede.
All choirs of holy Angels too,
Who praise our God both night and day,
Both past and present woes dispel,
All future evils keep away.
Great prophets of the Judge supreme,
And keen Apostles of our Lord,
We humbly beg the pow'rful aid
Your intercession will afford.
All martyrs for God's holy Name,
Who gloried in Christ's death to share,
And those whose lives have honored him,
Bring us to heaven by your prayer.
All monks and nuns who reap in joy
The fruits of ardent toil and praise,
Help us to earn our sight of God
With contemplation's purest gaze.
Give glory to the Trinity
And join your voices to our own,
That fittingly our eager praise
May mount before God's holy throne, Amen.
