Ecce lignum crucis, in quo salus mundi pependit.
Venite, adoremus.

Behold the wood of the cross, on which the world's salvation is hanging.
Come let us worship.

Latin.png Latin text

Crux fidelis inter omnes arbor una nobilis :
nulla silva talem profert, fronde, flore, germine.
Dulce lignum, dulces clavos,
dulce pondus sustinet.

English.png English translation

Faithful cross above all other, the one noble tree:
None in foliage nor in blossom, nor in fruit offers more.
Sweetest wood and sweetest iron,
sweetest weight is hung on thee.
