— Liber Hymnarius

1. Now the acceptable time
   given from heaven shines brightly,
   that it might heal a sickened world
   with the medicine of moderation.
   
   
2. With Christ’s seemly light
   the day of salvation shines forth,
   while abstinence reforms
   hearts wounded by their faults.
   
   
3. Bring about, O tender God,
   that with our minds and bodies
   we might strive for favorable passage
   in the eternal Passover.
   
   
4. O clement Trinity,
   may everything adore you,
   and let us who are renewed through grace
   sing a new song. Amen.
