Beating wings ignite the storm Flaming swords tear through the sky Now the battle has begun One creation fell to pride Darkness growing in his heart Rebellion has been born Hear the trumpet call the hosts Clad in armor, standing fast Ready now for war From the archangels, the humblest rose Raised his blade and cried aloud Who is like God? No one! Archangel Michael! Warrior of the most high Prince of heaven’s armies Guardian of paradise Light among the angels Defend us in battle! Swords collide and shields ignite Hear the battle cry: Mi-cha-el! War against the dragon sworn Ancient serpent overthrown Cast forever from the light Michael stands in victory Honored by the lord of hosts Crowned in glory Crowned in light Loved by all the righteous ones Bearer of eternal judgment Who is like God? No one! Archangel Michael! Warrior of the most high Prince of heaven’s armies Guardian of paradise Light among the angels Defend us in battle! Seraphim! Cherubim! Thrones! Dominions! Virtues! Powers! Principalities! Archangels! Angels! Archangel Michael! Warrior of the most high Prince of heaven’s armies Guardian of paradise Light among the angels Defend us in battle! Sancte míchæl archángele, defende nos in prœlio Contra nequítiam et insídias diáboli esto præsídium Impéret illi Deus, súplices deprecámur Tuque, princeps milítiæ cæléstis Sátanam aliósque spíritus malígnus Divina virtute in inférnum detrúte Amen
