possibly by Pope St. Gregory I (c540 - 604)
Plasmatur hominis Deus
Language: Latin
Plasmator hominis, Deus, qui, cuncta solus ordinans, humum iubes producere reptantis et feræ genus; Qui magna rerum corpora, dictu iubentis vivida, ut serviant per ordinem subdens dedisti homini: Repelle a servis tuis quicquid per immunditiam aut moribus se suggerit, aut actibus se interserit. Da gaudiorum præmia, da gratiarum munera: dissolve litis vincula, astringe pacis fœdera. Praesta, Pater piissime, Patrique compar Unice, cum Spiritu Paraclito regnans per omne saeculum.
