Te deprecamur ultimas Magnum diei Judicem: Armis supernæ gratiæ Defende nos ab hostibus.

Virtus, honor, laus, gloria Deo Patri, cum Filio, Sancto simul Paraclito, In sæculorum sæcula.

O Thou whose coming is with dread, To judge the living and the dead, Preserve us, while we dwell below, From ev'ry insult of the foe.

To Him who comes the world to free. To God the Son, all glory be: To God the Father, as is meet, To God the blessed Paraclete.

 ADVENT HYMN.

ENI, veni, Emmanuel! Captivum solve Israel, Qui gemit in exilio, Privatus Dei Filio. Gaude! gaude! Emmanuel Nascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni, O Jesse virgula! Ex hostis tuos ungula, De specu tuos tartari Educ, et antro barathri. Gaude! gaude! Emmanuel Nascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni, veni, O Oriens! Solare nos adveniens: Noctis depelle nebulas, Dirasque noctis tenebras. Gaude! gaude! Emmauuel Nascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni, clavis Davidica! Regna reclude cœlica, Fac iter tutum superum, Et claude vias inferum. Gaude! gaude! Emmanuel Nascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni, veni, Adonai! Qui populo in Sinai Legem dedisti vertice, In majestate gloriæ. Gaude! gaude! Emmanuel Nascetur pro te, Israel.

RAW nigh, draw nigh, Emmanuel, And ransom captive Israel, That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear. Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel Shall be born for thee, O Israel!

Draw nigh, O Jesse's Rod, draw nigh. To free us from the enemy; From Hell's infernal pit to save, And give us victory o'er the grave. Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel Shall be born for thee, O Israel!

Draw nigh, Thou Orient, who shalt cheer And comfort by Thine Advent here. And banish far the brooding gloom Of sinful night and endless doom. Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel Shall be born for thee, O Israel!

Draw nigh, draw nigh, O David's Key, The Heavenly Gate will ope to Thee; Make safe the way that leads on high, And close the path to misery. Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel Shall be born for thee, O Israel!

Draw nigh, draw nigh, O Lord of Might, Who to Thy tribes from Sinai's height In ancient time didst give the law, In cloud, and majesty, and awe. Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel Shall be born for thee, O Israel!
