O bone et dulcis Domine Jesus
Language: Latin
Our translations: ENG FRE
O bone et dulcis Domine Jesus,
credo firmiter et indubitanter,
quidquid sacrosancta credit ecclesia,
deprecor tuam pietatem et clementiam.
Fac me vivere et mori in tua fide.
Confiteor enim coram majestate tua
et sanctis angelis tuis, quod servus tuus sum,
et quidquid mihi accedat tuus sum fidelis.
Amen.

O good and sweet Lord Jesus
Language: English  after the Latin
O good and sweet Lord Jesus
I believe firmly and without doubt
Whatever the church considers inviolable;
I pray for your devotion and gentleness.
Make me to live and die in your faith.
I confess indeed before your majesty
And your holy angels, that I am your servant,
And whatever may happen to me I am your loyal follower.
Amen.
