Verbum supernum prodiens nec Patris linquens dexteram,<br>
ad opus suum exiens venit ad vitae vesperam.<br>
In mortem a discipulo suis tradendus aemulis,<br>
prius in vitae ferculo se tradidit discipulis.<br>
O salutaris hostia, quae caeli pandis ostium,<br>
bella premunt hostilia: da robur, fer auxilium.<br>
Unitroque Domino sit sempiterna Gloria,<br>

The heavenly Word proceeding forth,<br>
yet not leaving the Father's right hand,<br>
going out to do His work, reached life's evening.<br>
By His false disciple to be betrayed<br>
to foemen eager for His death,<br>
Himself, the living Bread from heaven,<br>
He gave to His disciples beforehand.<br>
O victim and salvation<br>
who open wide the gate of heaven,<br>
we are oppressed by savage wars,<br>
give us your strength, bring us your aid.<br>
Everlasting glory be to the Lord, <br>
three in One, <br>
who gives us life without end <br>
in heaven.<br>

Text and translation of verses 1, 2, 5 and 6:

Verbum supernum prodiens nec Patris linquens dexteram,
ad opus suum exiens venit ad vitae vesperam.
In mortem a discipulo suis tradendus aemulis,
prius in vitae ferculo se tradidit discipulis.
O salutaris hostia, quae caeli pandis ostium,
bella premunt hostilia: da robur, fer auxilium.
Unitroque Domino sit sempiterna Gloria,
qui vitam sine termino nobis donet in patria. Amen.

English translation:
The heavenly Word proceeding forth,
yet not leaving the Father's right hand,
going out to do His work, reached life's evening.
By His false disciple to be betrayed
to foemen eager for His death,
Himself, the living Bread from heaven,
He gave to His disciples beforehand.
O victim and salvation
who open wide the gate of heaven,
we are oppressed by savage wars,
give us your strength, bring us your aid.
Everlasting glory be to the Lord,
three in One,
who gives us life without end
in heaven.
