Hail True Body Truly Born

Hail, true Body, truly born

Of the Virgin Mary mild

Truly offered, wracked and torn,

On the Cross for all defiled,

From Whose love pierced, sacred side

Flowed Your true Blood's saving tide:

Be a foretaste sweet to me

In my death's great agony,

O my loving, Gentle One,

Sweetest Jesus,

Mary's Son.

Amen.
