Latin text

O Christe Jesu, pastor bone,
Mediator et patrone,
Mundi nobis in agone,
Confer opem et depone
Vitae sordes et coronae
Celestis da gloriam.

Et Elizabetham nostram
Angliae reginae serva
Et ecclesiam piorum
Tueare custos horum,
Et utrisque concedatur
Eternae vitae premium.

English translation

O Jesus Christ, good shepherd,
Mediator and patron,
To us in the trials of the world
Grant help and remove
Life’s baseness, and give us
The joy of a heavenly crown.

Save our Elizabeth, Queen of England,
And watch over the Church
O protector of these the devout;
And allow both
The reward of eternal life.
