Latin text

Viri Galilaei, quid statis aspicientes in coelum?
Hic Jesus, qui assumptus est a vobis in coelum,
hic venient, Alleluia.

O Rex gloriae, Domine virtutum,
Qui triumphator hodie super omnes coelos
ascendisti ne derelinquas nos orphanos
mitte promissum patris in nos spiritum veritatis. Alleluia.
