The text is a slight variant of Aquinas' "O salutaris hostia". This piece may be used similarly as a Eucharistic motet. From Promptuarii musici (vol. 2), 1612.
Lyrics: St. Thomas Aquinas
O vere digna hostia,
Quae caeli pandis ostium:
Bella premunt hostilia:
Da robur, fer auxilium.
O worthy Victim, opening wide
The gate of heaven to all us below:
Our foes press on from side to side:
Thine aid supply, Thy strength bestow.
O vere digna hostia,
Quae caeli pandis ostium:
Bella premunt hostilia:
Da robur, fer auxilium.
O worthy Victim, opening wide
The gate of heaven to all us below:
Our foes press on from side to side:
Thine aid supply, Thy strength bestow.
