You are the great warrior angel,
Ready for the spiritual battle,
Always sober, vigilant, and alert,
You wait and watch for the enemy;
Then in the midst of black terror,
You slay the red dragon of fear,
Brandishing the sword of the Spirit,
The glorious golden sword of Love;
Teach us to become brave soldiers,
Soldiers of Jesus Christ the Lord,
Nourished by the holy Bread of Life,
Refreshed by His sweet new wine.
