Prima Pars

Aspice, Domine de sede sancta tua, et cogita de nobis; inclina, Deus meus, aurem tuam et audi; Aperi oculos tuos et vide tribulationem nostram.

Secunda Pars

Respice Domine, de sanctuario tuo et de excelsis caelorum habitaculis.

Look down, O Lord, from thy holy seat, and think on us: incline thine ear, O my God, and hear. Open thine eyes and behold our tribulation.

Look down, O Lord, from thy sanctuary and thy high heavenly dwellings.
