Chant text · Latin

LUcis Creátor óptime, Lucem diérum próferens, Primórdiis lucis novae Mundi parans oríginem : 2. Qui mane junctum vésperi Diem vocári praécipis : Illábitur tetrum chaos, Audi preces cum flétibus. 3. Ne mens graváta crímine, Vitae sit exsul múnere, Dum nil perénne cógitat, Seséque culpis ílligat. 4. Caeléste pulset óstium, Vitále tollat praémium : Vitémus omne nóxium, Purgémus omne péssimum. 5. Praesta, Pater piíssime, Patríque compar Unice, Cum Spíritu Paráclito, Regnans per omne saéculum. Amen.
