Arr. by P. J. Van Damme

Moderato

1.
O esca viatorum,
O panis Angelorum,
O manna coelitum:
Esurientes ciba,
Dulce dine non priva,
Corda quaerentium,
Corda quaerentium.

2.
O lympha, fons amoris,
Qui puro Salvatoris
E corde profluis;
Te sitientes pota,
Haec sola nostra vota,
His una sufficis,
His una sufficis.

3.
O Jesu, tuum vultum,
Quem colimus occultum
Sub panis specie:
Fac ut, remoto velo,
Post, libera in coelo,
Cernamus acie, Cernamus acie.
