God the Father
God the Word
God the Holy Ghost adored:
Spare us
holy Trinity.
Spotless Lamb of God most high
Manna coming from the sky:
Hear us
holy Jesus.
Very Man and Word divine
Hidden under bread and wine:
Hear us
holy Jesus.
Purest Victim
stainless Priest
Thou the Host
and Thou the Feast:
Hear us
holy Jesus.
Bread of life
the angels’ food
Cup of blessing
precious blood:
Hear us
holy Jesus.
Off’ring of most perfect might
Bond
Thy faithful to unite:
Hear us
holy Jesus.
From the tempting lures of sin
From all pride and lusts within:
Keep us
holy Jesus.
From all unbelief in Thee
Veiled in this great mystery:
Keep us
holy Jesus.
By Thy sitting down to meat
That last Passover to eat:
Keep us
holy Jesus.
Through the dread and holy rite
Founded on that awful night:
Keep us
holy Jesus.
Through Thy presence with us here
When we draw Thine altar near:
Keep us
holy Jesus.
Help us
guide us
make us pure
Give us blessings which endure:
Save us
holy Jesus.
Lead Thy pilgrims on their way
Shine on us
unending Day:
Keep us
holy Jesus.
When we draw our latest breath
Feed us at the time of death:
Keep us
holy Jesus.
