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.
