Text

Adoramus te, Christe, et benedicimus tibi, quia per crucem tuam redemisti mundum, super omnia ligna cedrorum, tu sola excelsior in qua vita mundi pependit, in qua Christus triumphavit, et mors mortem superavit in aeternum.

Translation

We adore you, Christ, and we bless you, for you have redeemed the world by your cross, which alone excels above all cedar wood as on it hung the life of the world, on it Christ triumphed and death overcame death forever.
