Lyrics:

O nata lux de lumine, 
Jesu redemptor saeculi, 
dignare clemens supplicum 
laudes preces que sumere. 
Qui carne quondam contegi 
dignatus es properditis, 
Nos membra confer effici, 
tui beati corporis. 

Translation
O born light of light, 
Jesus, redeemer of the world, 
mercifully deem worthy and accept 
the praises and prayers of your supplicants. 
Thou who once deigned to be clothed in flesh 
for the sake of the lost ones, 
grant us to be made members 
of your holy body.
