<poem>
Jesus, our redemption, love and desire,
God, Creator of all things, becomes man in the fullness of time.
What mercy made thee bear our crimes,
to suffer a cruel death that we might be saved from death!
Descending into Hell’s prison, freeing thy captives,
Thy noble triumph won, dwelling at the Father’s right hand.
Let pity compel thee to overcome our evils,
granting pardon, fulfil and satisfy us with thy face.
Be our joy, who will be our future prize;
let all our glory be in Thee forever, throughout all ages.

JESU, nostra redemptio,
Amor et desiderium,
Deus creator omnium,
Homo in fine temporum.
 
Quae te vicit dementia,
Ut ferres nostra crimina,
Crudelem mortem patiens
Ut nos a morte tolleres!

Inferni claustra penetrans,
Tuos captivos redimens,
Victor triumpho nobili
Ad dextram Patris residens

Ipsa te cogat pietas
Ut mala nostra superes
Parcendo et voti compotes
Nos tuo vultu saties.

Tu esto nostrum gaudium,
Qui es futurus praemium,
Sit nostra in te gloria,
Per cuncta semper secula.

Jesus, our redemption, love and desire,
God, Creator of all things, becomes man in the fullness of time.

What mercy made thee bear our crimes,
to suffer a cruel death that we might be saved from death!

Descending into Hell’s prison, freeing thy captives,
Thy noble triumph won, dwelling at the Father’s right hand.

Let pity compel thee to overcome our evils,
granting pardon, fulfil and satisfy us with thy face.

Be our joy, who will be our future prize;
let all our glory be in Thee forever, throughout all ages.
