Translation:

You Christians, glorify, lift up and praise with heart and mind, with soul and mouth the grace that the Lord offers in his new and eternal covenant. He gives and shares in full streams to make man return to his temple. The Savior pours on his members the oil of salvation, the baptism of fire, brings the many scattered souls from the confused world back again into his net of love.
