Orbis patrator optime
Language: Latin
Orbis patrator optime qui, quidquid est, potentia magna creasti, nec regis minore providentia. Adesto supplicantium tibi reorum coetui, lucisque sub crepusculum lucem novam da mentibus. Tuusque nobis Angelus, signatus ad custodiam, hic adsit, a contagio qui criminum nos protegat. Deo Patri sit gloria, qui, quos redemit Filius, et Sanctus unxit Spiritus, per Angelos custodiat. Amen.
