Original text and translations
Latin text
Gaudent in caelis animae Sanctorum,
qui Christi vestigia sunt secuti;
et quia pro ejus amore sanguinem suum fuderunt,
ideo cum Christo exsultant sine fine
English translation
The souls of the saints rejoice in heaven,
they who have followed in the footsteps of Christ;
and because they shed their blood for love of Him,
They rejoice with Christ without end.
German translation
Die Seelen der Heiligen freuen sich im Himmel,
die den Spuren Christi gefolgt sind,
und weil sie für seine Liebe ihr Blut vergossen haben,
deshalb jubeln sie mit Christus ohne Ende.
