Adoro deuote, latens ueritas,<br>
te que sub his formis uere latitas.<br>
Tibi se cor meum totum subicit,<br>
quia te contemplans totum deficit.
<p>Visus, tactus, gustus in te fallitur,<br>
sed auditu solo tute creditur.<br>
Credo quicquid dixit dei filius,<br>
nichil ueritatis uerbo uerius.
<p>In cruce latebat sola deitas,<br>
sed hic latet simul et humanitas.<br>
Ambo uere credens atque confitens,<br>
peto quod petiuit latro penitens.
<p>Plagas sicut Thomas non intueor,<br>
deum tamen meum te confiteor.<br>
Fac me tibi semper magis credere,<br>
in te spem habere, te diligere.
<p>O memoriale mortis domini,<br>
panis uiuus uitam prestans homini.<br>
Presta michi semper de te uiuere,<br>
et te michi semper dulce sapere.
<p>Pie pellicane, Ihesu domine,<br>
me immundum munda tuo sanguine.<br>
Cuius una stilla saluum facere,<br>
totum mundum posset omni scelere.
<p>Ihesu, quem uelatum nunc aspicio,<br>
quando fiet illud quod tam sicio?<br>
te reuelata cernens facie,<br>
uisu sim beatus tue glorie.

Godhead here in hiding, whom I do adore,<br>
Masked by these bare shadows, shape and nothing more,<br>
See, Lord, at your service low lies here a heart<br>
Lost, all lost in wonder at the God you are.
<p>Seeing, touching, tasting are in thee deceived:<br>
How says trusty hearing? that shall be believed;<br>
What God's Son has told me, take for truth I do;<br>
Truth Himself speaks truly or there's nothing true.
<p>On the cross your godhead made no sign to men,<br>
Here your very manhood steals from human ken:<br>
Both are my confession, both are my belief,<br>
And I pray the prayer of the dying thief.
<p>I am not like Thomas, wounds I cannot see,<br>
But can plainly call you Lord and God as he;<br>
Let me to a deeper faith daily nearer move,<br>
Daily make me harder hope and dearer love.
<p>You are our reminder of Christ crucified,<br>
Living Bread, the life of us for whom he died,<br>
Lend this life to me then: feed and feast my mind<br>
With your sweetness that we all were meant to find.
<p>Bring the tender tale true of the Pelican;<br>
Bathe me, Jesu Lord, in what your bosom ran<br>
Blood whereof a single drop has power to win<br>
All the world forgiveness of its world of sin.
<p>Jesu, whom I look at shrouded here below,<br>
I beseech you send me what I thirst for so,<br>
Some day to gaze on you face to face in light<br>
And be blest for ever with your glory's sight. Amen.
