For by the holy image drawn,
Our sins are washed, our spirit cleansed,
And free we face each new day's dawn.

Receive our thanks, Veronica,
That on that day of gloom and fear,
Thou didst our Saviour's form transfer,

And thus we venerate this piece
Of fabric that has come through time
To bring us blessings from our God,
And show to us His face divine.
