Magne Pater Augustine, Preces nostras suscipe Et per eas Conditori Nos unire satage: Atque rege gregem tuum, Summum decus praesulum. Amatorem paupertatis Te collaudant pauperes: Assertorem veritatis Amant veri judices: Frangis nobis favos mellis, De Scripturis disserens. Quae obscura prius erant Nobis plana faciens, Tu de verbis Salvatoris Dulcem panem conficis, Et propinas potum vitae De Psalmorum nectare. Tu de vita clericorum Sanctam scribis regulam, Quam qui amant et sequuntur Viam tenent regiam, Atque tuo sancto ductu Redeunt ad patriam. Regi regum salus, vita, Decus, et imperium: Trinitati laus et honor Sit per omne saeculum, Quae concives nos adscribat Supernorum civium.
Great Father Augustine, receive our prayers, and by them, seek thou to reconcile us to the Creator, and rule thy flock, o highest glory of bishops. The poor praise thee as one who loved poverty: true judges love thee as a defender of the truth; share with us the sweetness as thou expound the Scriptures. Making plain to us what was once obscure, thou makest sweet bread from the Saviour’s words, and offer us the drink of life from the nectar of the Psalms. Thou didst write the holy rule for the life of clerics; and they that love and follow it, keep the royal way, and under thy holy leadership return to the Father’s land. To the King of kings be life, salvation, glory and rule: to the Trinity praise and honor be through every age: and may He make us fellow- citizens of those that dwell in heaven. Amen.
Magne Pater Augustine,
Preces nostras suscipe
Et per eas Conditori
Nos unire satage:
Atque rege gregem tuum,
Summum decus praesulum.
Amatorem paupertatis
Te collaudant pauperes:
Assertorem veritatis
Amant veri judices:
Frangis nobis favos mellis,
De Scripturis disserens.
Quae obscura prius erant
Nobis plana faciens,
Tu de verbis Salvatoris
Dulcem panem conficis,
Et propinas potum vitae
De Psalmorum nectare.
Tu de vita clericorum
Sanctam scribis regulam,
Quam qui amant et sequuntur
Viam tenent regiam,
Atque tuo sancto ductu
Redeunt ad patriam.
Regi regum salus, vita,
Decus, et imperium:
Trinitati laus et honor
Sit per omne saeculum,
Quae concives nos adscribat
Supernorum civium.
Great Father Augustine,
receive our prayers,
and by them, seek thou to
reconcile us to the Creator,
and rule thy flock,
o highest glory of bishops.
The poor praise thee
as one who loved poverty:
true judges love thee
as a defender of the truth;
share with us the sweetness
as thou expound the Scriptures.
Making plain to us
what was once obscure,
thou makest sweet bread
from the Saviour’s words,
and offer us the drink of life
from the nectar of the Psalms.
Thou didst write the holy rule
for the life of clerics;
and they that love and follow it,
keep the royal way,
and under thy holy leadership
return to the Father’s land.
To the King of kings be life,
salvation, glory and rule:
to the Trinity praise and honor
be through every age:
and may He make us fellow-
citizens of those that dwell
in heaven. Amen.
I hope you have a complete and whole recording of Magne Pater.
