Original lyrics
O Vis Aeternitatis
R. O vis eternitatis
que omnia ordinasti in corde tuo,
per Verbum tuum omnia creata sunt
sicut voluisti,
et ipsum Verbum tuum
induit carnem
in formatione illa
que educta est de Adam.
R. Et sic indumenta ipsius
a maximo dolore
abstersa sunt.
V. O quam magna est benignitas Salvatoris,
qui omnia liberavit
per incarnationem suam,
quam divinitas exspiravit
sine vinculo peccati.
R. Et sic indumenta ipsius
a maximo dolore
abstersa sunt.
Gloria Patri et Filio
et Spiritui sancto.
R. Et sic indumenta ipsius
a maximo dolore
abstersa sunt.
SaintMarkTranslation
o power within eternity
R. O power within Eternity:
All things you held in order in your heart,
and through your Word were all created
according to your will.
And then your very Word
was clothed within
that form of flesh
from Adam born.
R. And so his garments
were washed and cleansed
from greatest suffering.
V. How great the Savior’s goodness is!
For he has freed all things
by his own Incarnation,
which divinity breathed forth
unchained by any sin.
R. And so his garments
were washed and cleansed
by greatest suffering.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit.
R. And so his garments
were washed and cleansed
by greatest suffering
