Rex Tremendae - Aeternitas

Rex tremendae majestatis,

qui salvandos

salvas gratis,

salva me, fons pietatis.

Recordare, Jesu pie,

quod sum causa tuae viae:

ne me perdas

illa die.

Ingemisco tamquam reus:

Culpa rubet vultus meus:

supplicanti parce, Deus.

Preces mea non sunt dignae:

sed tu bonus fac benigne,

ne perenni cremer igne.

King of tremendous majesty,

who saves

you save for free

save me, fount of pity.

Remember, Merciful Jesus

that I am the cause of your journey

don't lose

on that day.

I sigh like a guilty

Owning my

spare the supplicant, O God.

My prayers are not worthy

but you, you freeman, treat me kindly

eternal fire.
