Lyrics:

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.
Amen.

Translation:
O saving Victim,
Who expandest the door of heaven,
Hostile armies press,
Give strength; bear aid.

To the One and Triune Lord,
May there be everlasting glory;
who life without end
gives us in the homeland.
Amen.
