O Savior Jesus, not alone
we plead for help before thy throne;
thy Mother's love shall aid our prayer
to win for us that healing care.
For souls defaulting supplicate
all orders of the angel state,
the patriarchs in line to thee,
the prophet's good company.
For souls in guilt ensnarèd pray
the Baptist, herald of thy way,
the wielder of the heavenly keys,
the apostolic witnesses.
For souls polluted intercede
thy martyrs, hallowed in their deed,
confessors high in priestly power,
and they who have the virgin dower.
Let all who served thy Church below,
and now thy heavenly freedom know,
give heed to help our lingering strife
and claim for us the crown of life.
To God the Father, God the Son,
and God the Spirit, Three in One,
all honor, praise and glory be
from age to age eternally.
