The word descending from above
Never to leave His Father's side
And going forth to do His work
He reached the evening of His life
By false disciple who betrayed
To form and for his blood of thirst
Broken the living bread from heaven
He gave to His disciples first

Oh Salutaris Hóstia
Quae Caeli pandis ostium
Bella premunt hostilia
Da robur, fer auxilium
Uni trinoque Domino
Sint sempiterna Gloria
Qui vitam sine termino
Nobis donet in patria

In birth He gave himself as friend
As food at table of the Lord
As ransom paid upon the cross
And now He reigns our great reward
And now He reigns our great reward

Oh Salutaris Hóstia
Quae Caeli pandis ostium
Bella premunt hostilia
Da robur fer auxilium

Uni trinoque Domino
Sint sempiterna Gloria
Qui vitam sine termino
Nobis donet in patria

Oh Salutaris Hóstia
(Oh saving victim Jesus Christ)
Quae Caeli pandis ostium
(You made a way for us)
Bella premunt hostilia
(There's a word still raging in deep inside)
Da robur fer auxilium
(I need you more than ever before)

Uni trinoque Domino
(I'll let the sacrifice again)
Sint sempiterna Gloria
(To the Father, Son and Holy Ghost)
Qui vitam sine termino
(Let heaven fall in these dark days)
Nobis donet in patria
(And lead us to eternal shore)

Oh Salutaris Hóstia
Quae Caeli pandis ostium
Bella premunt hostilia
Da robur, fer auxilium

Uni trinoque Domino
Sint sempiterna Gloria
Qui vitam sine termino
Nobis donet in patria
Amén
