Translation:

In the midst of life we are in death
Whom can we seek as our helper but you, O Lord,
who for our sins are justly angry?

Holy God.
Holy and strong.
Holy and merciful Savior,
deliver us not to the bitter pains of death.

—Antiphona de Morte, attributed to Notker (c. 840-912), sung in Latin.
