1.
<V.> Novis canamus mentibus
appostolorum cetibus
in ipsorum nunc laudibus
concordes simus vocibus.

<V.> Solempnia hodierna
dent nobis regna superna
ut pietas nos paterna
conservet luce eterna.

R° O vos sancti appostoli
iungite nos regi poli
alleluia alleluia.

2.
<V.> In appostolorum ??? die
exaudi nos Christe pie
ut ipsorum sacre vie
iungant no celi curie.

<V.> O celestia sidera
adaugete nunc munera
portantens vestra pondera
delete nostra scelera.

<R° O vos sancti>

3.
<V.> Felice mundi iudices
exaudite nos supplices
ne sitis nobis vindices
sed docete nos simplices.

<V.> Plaude frater fraternitas
quam atque celi civitas
in qua semper iocunditas
est atque plena caritas.

<R° O vos sancti>
