Latin text
Tu Deus noster suavis et verus es,
patiens et pius, in misericordia disponens omnia,
etenim si peccaverimus tui sumus,
scientes magnitudinem tuam,
et si non peccaverimus, scimus quoniam
apud te sumus computati;
nosse enim te, consumata iustitia est,
et scire iustitiam et virtutem tuam,
radix est immortalitatis.
Tribue ergo nobis Domine,
ut tibi soli servientes,
sub umbra alarum tuarum protecti,
iustitiam et virtutem exercere valeamus,
ut cum defecerimus recipere nos digneris
in æterna tabernacula.
