O Saving Victim, Open Wide

lyricist: Thomas Aquinas (1227–1274)
Composer: Abbé Dieudonne Duguet (?-circa 1767)

O saving Vic­tim

op­en wide

The gate of Heav’n to man be­low;

Our foes press on from ev­ery side;

Your aid sup­ply; Your strength be­stow.

To your great name be end­less praise;

Immortal God­head

One in Three;

Grant us

for end­less length of days

In our true na­tive land to be.
