| Tibi, Christe, splendor Patris, Vita, virtus córdium, In conspéctu Angelórum. Votis, vocis psállimus: Alternántes concrepándo Melos damus vócibus. Collaudámus venerántes Omnes cæli mílites: Sed præcípue primátem Cæléstis exércitus, Michaélem, in virtúte Conteréntem zábulum. Quo custóde procul pelle, Rex Christe piissime, Omne nefas inimíci: Mundo corde’et córpore, Paradíso redde tuo nos sola cleméntia. Glóriam Patri melódis Personémus vócibus, Glóriam Christo canámus, Glóriam Paráclito, Qui trinus et unus Deus Exstat ante sǽcula. Amen. |

| 1. Thee, O Christ, the Father’s splendor, Life and virtue of the heart, In the presence of the angels Sing we now with tuneful art, Meetly in alternate chorus, Bearing our responsive part. Meetly in alternate chorus, Bearing our responsive part. |
2. Thus we praise with veneration All the armies of the sky; Chiefly him, the warrior primate, Of celestial chivalry, Michael, who in princely virtue Cast Abaddon from on high. Michael, who in princely virtue Cast Abaddon from on high. |
| 3. By whose watchful care repelling, King of everlasting grace! Every ghostly adversary, All things evil, all things base, Grant us of Thine only goodness, In Thy paradise a place. Grant us of Thine only goodness, In Thy paradise a place. |
4. Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three, and ever One, Consubstantial*, co-eternal, While unending ages run. Consubstantial, co-eternal, While unending ages run. *(One in Being.The Three Divine Persons are in One Another [#41].) Amen. |
