Jesus, our redemption, love and desire,
God, Creator of all things, becomes man in the fullness of time.
What mercy made thee bear our crimes,
to suffer a cruel death that we might be saved from death!
Descending into Hells prison, freeing thy captives,
Thy noble triumph won, dwelling at the Fathers right hand.
Let pity compel thee to overcome our evils,
granting pardon, fulfil and satisfy us with thy face.
Be our joy, who will be our future prize;
let all our glory be in Thee forever, throughout all ages.
