Original text and translations

Latin text

Sancte Deus, Sancte Fortis, Sancte et Immortalis, miserere nobis.

Nunc, Christe, te petimus, miserere, quaesumus.

Qui venisti redimere perditos, noli damnare redemptos:

Quia per crucem tuam redemisti mundum. Amen.

(English votive antiphon.)

English translation

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy and Immortal One, have mercy upon us.

Now, O Christ, we ask thee, we beseech thee, have mercy.

Thou who came to redeem the lost, do not condemn the redeemed:

For by thy cross thou hast redeemed the world. Amen.

Translation supplied by The St. Ann Choir, directed by William Mahrt.
