1.
<V.> Novis canamus mentibus
apostolorum cetibus
in temporum nunc laudibus
concordes simus vocibus.

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

W. Solemnia hodierna
dent nobis regna superna
ut pietas nos paterna
conservet luce eterna.

2.
W. 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.> Felices 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>
