• Lyrics:
  O salutaris Hostia,
  Quae caeli pandis ostium:
  Bella premunt hostilia,
  Da robur, fer auxilium.
  Uni trinoque Domino
  Sit sempiterna gloria,
  Qui vitam sine termino
  Nobis donet in patria.
  Amen.

• Lyrics:
  O Saving Victim opening wide
  The gate of heaven to all below.
  Our foes press on from every side;
  Thine aid supply, Thy strength bestow.
  
  To Thy great name be endless praise
  Immortal Godhead, One in Three;
  Oh, grant us endless length of days,
  In our true native land with Thee.
  Amen.
