    Iste Conféssor Dómini sacrátus,

    Festa plebs cujus celébrat per orbem,

    Hódie lætus méruit secréta

    Scándere cæli.


    Qui pius, prudens, húmilis, pudícus,

    Sóbrius, castus fuit et quiétus,

    Vita dum præsens vegetávit ejus

    Córporis artus.


    Ob sacrum cujus túmulum frequénter

    Membra languéntum modo sanitáti,

    Quólibet morbo fúerint graváta,

    Restituúntur.


    Unde nunc noster chorus in honórem

    Ipsius, hymnum canit hunc libénter:

    Ut piis ejus méritis juvémur

    Omne per ævum.


    Sit salus illi, decus atque virtus,

    Qui supra cæli résidens cacúmen,

    Tótius mundi máchinam gubérnat

    Trinus et unus. Amen.

    This is the Lord's own hallowed confessor,

    Whose feast today the nations round are keeping;

    Joyful, he merited this day to enter

    Heaven's hid glory.


    Dutiful, prudent, humble, chaste, he flourished,

    Sober and quiet, pure in all his living,

    While in his body yet the breath of this life

    Quickened his members.


    Often at his consecrated tomb, the

    Limbs of those worn by long and grievous sickness,

    Whatsoever ill had laid them low, are

    Wholly restored.


    Therefore our choir today, in glad thanksgiving,

    Sings in his honor this our joyful anthem:

    That by his merits, freely won through goodness,

    We may be aided.


    Praise be to Him, all honor, might, dominion,

    Who from the height of heaven's throne is reigning,

    Governing all the fabric of creation,

    Three and yet One. Amen.
