Thee. Pardon our sins, O my God. which, for the love of Thee, we sincerely detest; purify our hearts, sanctify our souls, and bestow a blessing on us like that which Thou didst grant to Thy disciples at Thy ascension into heaven: grant us a blessing that may change us, consecrate us. unite us perfectly to Thee, fill us with Thy spirit, and be to us in this life a foretaste of those blessings which Thou has prepared for Thy elect in Thy heavenly kingdom. Amen.

O Salutaris Postia

O SAVING Victim, opening wide
The gate of heav'n to man below  !
Our foes press on from every side;
Thine aid supply. Thy strength bestow.
To Thy great name be endless praise,
Immortal Godhead, One in Three;
Oh, grant us endless length of days.
In our true native land with Thee. Amen.

Tantum Ergo Sacramentum

Down in adoration falling,
Lo! the sacred Host we hail!
