Christus in cena, ad quam omnes invítat, corpus et sánguinem suum tradit pro mundi vita. Ipsum deprecémur:
– Christe, panis cæléstis, da nobis vitam ætérnam.
Christe, Fili Dei vivi, qui eucharístiæ cenam in tui commemoratiónem fácere præcepísti,
Ecclésiam tuam fidéli dita mysteriórum celebratióne.
– Christe, panis cæléstis, da nobis vitam ætérnam.
Christe, sacérdos Altíssimi únice, qui sacraménta tua offerénda sacerdótibus commisísti,
in mores eórum íngere, quæ in signis tríbuis celebráre.
– Christe, panis cæléstis, da nobis vitam ætérnam.
Christe, manna de cælo, qui omnes de uno pane participántes unum éfficis corpus,
pacem et concórdiam ómnium in te credéntium réfove.
– Christe, panis cæléstis, da nobis vitam ætérnam.
Christe, cæléstis médice, qui remédium immortalitátis et pignus resurrectiónis per tuum panem præbes,
ægrótis sanitátem et spem vivam peccatóribus redde.
– Christe, panis cæléstis, da nobis vitam ætérnam.
Christe, rex ventúre, qui mystéria in mortem tuam annuntiándam donec veníres ut celebraréntur mandásti,
omnes, qui in te decessérunt, fac resurrectiónis tuæ partícipes.
– Christe, panis cæléstis, da nobis vitam ætérnam.

bring all those who have died in you to share your resurrection.
