 said: Under thy shadow we shall live among the Gentiles.

F. Thanks be to God.

Now let us all with one accord To Christ our Captain anthems raise, Whose conquering cross our life restored,— Let heaven resound with songs of praise.

O may thy dreadful agony With true contrition rend our breast, And make us ever seek for thee, O Jesus, our Redeemer blest.

Those blissful scars which Jesus bore, The spitting, scourging, buffeting, To us have won for evermore The eternal gifts of Christ our King.

Let not thy Blood be shed in vain But to our hearts its power apply, And wash them clean from every stain, Creator of the starry sky.

The gifts which from thy Passion flow Grant us, O Savior, of thy grace, And in thy faithfulness bestow The heavenly vision of thy face.
