Latin text O decus apostolicum, Christe Redemptor gentium,
quem Thomas apostolus, tactis cicatricibus, Deum cognovit Dominum:
gregem tuum protege, quem redemisti sanguine.
Alleluia.

English translation Translation supplied by The St. Ann Choir, directed by William Mahrt

O glory of the Apostles, Christ, redeemer of the nations,
whom Thomas the apostle, when he touched the wounds, recognized as Lord:
protect thy flock, which thou hast redeemed with thy blood.
Alleluia.

German translation Translation supplied by Euphrosyne

O Glanz der Apostel, Christus, Erlöser der Völker,
den Thomas, der Apostel durch die Berührung der Wunden als Gott, als Herrn erkannte.
Schütze Deine Schar, die Du durch dein Blut erlöst hast.
Halleluja.
