Original text and translations
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.
O victim and salvation
who opens 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.
