1. To the Apostle of the Gentiles,
To the holy Paul elected,
//We your trusting,
faithful children kneel before you
raising prayers and hymns.//
2. Praise and honor to you, Father!
You traversed the wide world over.
//Your great love and zeal conquered sin and
brought salvation
To souls won for God.//
3. We place at the Gospel’s service
All means of communication.
//Neath your holy standard, glorious Apostle,
May the world be saved.//
4. Oh, obtain for your disciples
Faith and zeal and love most ardent
//Make us humble of heart so we too may
share with you joys of paradise.//
