Hymnus
Iesu, redémptor ómnium, perpes coróna cǽlitum, in hac die cleméntius nostris favéto vócibus,
Sacri tui qua nóminis conféssor almus cláruit, cuius célebrat ánnua devóta plebs sollémnia.
Per illa quæ sunt sǽculi gressu seréno tránsiit, tibi fidélis iúgiter iter salútis pérsequens.
At rite mundi gáudiis non cor cadúcis ápplicans, cum ángelis cæléstibus lætus potítur prǽmiis.
Huius benígnus ánnue nobis sequi vestígia; huius precátu sérvulis dimítte noxam críminis.
Sit, Christe, rex piíssime, tibi Patríque glória cum Spíritu Paráclito, in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.

Lectio brevis (Rom 8, 28-30)
Scimus quóniam diligéntibus Deum ómnia cooperántur in bonum, his, qui secúndum propósitum vocáti sunt. Nam, quos præscívit, et prædestinávit confórmes fíeri imáginis Fílii eius, ut sit ipse primogénitus in multis frátribus; quos autem prædestinávit, hos et vocávit; et quos vocávit, hos et iustificávit; quos autem iustificávit, illos et glorificávit.
And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints. For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren. And whom he predestinated, them he also called. And whom he called, them he also justified. And whom he justified, them he also glorified.
