Lyrics:

Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.

Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor.
Exsultemus et in ipso jucundemur.
Timeamus et amemus Deum vivum
Et ex corde diligamus nos sincero.

Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est. 
Amen.

English translation:
Where there is charity and love, God is there.

The love of Christ has gathered us together.
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Let us revere and love the living God.
And from a sincere heart let us love one another.

Where there is charity and love, God is there.  
Amen.
