Cibavit eos ex adipe frumenti, alleluia: et de petra,

melle saturavit eos, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

He fed them with the finest wheat and satisfied them with

honey from the rock. Psalm 81:17

1.) 1 Shepherd of souls, refresh and bless

your chosen pilgrim flock

with manna in the wilderness,

with water from the rock.

2.) We would not live by bread alone,

but by your word of grace,

in strength of which we travel on

to our abiding place.

3.) Be known to us in breaking bread,

but do not then depart;

Saviour, abide with us, and spread

your table in our heart.

4.) Lord, sup with us in love divine,

your body and your blood,

that living bread, that heavenly wine,

be our immortal food.

Kyrie eleison.

Christe eleison.

Kyrie eleison.

Lord, have mercy.

Christ, have mercy.

Lord, have mercy.

GLORIA Plainchant, Mode V

RESPONSORIAL PSALM

All: Praise the Lord, Jerusalem.

SEQUENCE

Lauda Sion Salvatorem Thomas Aquinas (1225—1274)

O Zion, praise thy Saviour, thy Prince and thy Shepherd; praise him with hymns and canticles. Make bold to praise him with all

thy strength; for he surpasseth all praise; thou shalt ne'er be fully equal to the task. A special theme of praise, the living and

life-giving bread, is on this day proposed. Upon the table of the Last Supper, to the group of the brethren Twelve, this bread was

truly given. Behold the Bread of Angels, made the food of mortal men; truly the Bread of children, and not to be treated irrever-

ently. These were types of this angelic Bread: Isaac’s sacrifice, the paschal lamb, the manna in the desert.

O quam suavis est, Domine, spiritus tuus, qui ut

dulcedinem tuam in filios demonstrares pane

suavissimo de caelo praestito, esurientes reples

bonis, fastidiosos divites dimittens inanes.

O how sweet, O Lord, is thy spirit, who, to show thy

tenderness to thy children, feedest them with thy sweet-

est bread from heaven, feeding the hungry with good

things, and sending the disdainful rich away empty.

POSTLUDE La Romanesca Antonio Valente (c. 1520—1580)

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. (2) Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem.

Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, have mercy on us. Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, grant us peace.

Qui manducat carnem meam, et bibit sanguinem

meum, in me manet, et ego in eo, dicit Dominus.

Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood

remains in me and I in him, says the Lord. John 6:57

Ave verum corpus natum de Maria Vir-

gine: vere passum, immolatum in cruce

pro homine: cuius latus perforatum unda

fluxit [ et ] sanguine: esto nobis praegus-

tatum, in mortis examine.

Hail the true body, born of the Virgin Mary:

You who truly suffered and were sacrificed

on the cross for the sake of man. From whose

pierced flank flowed water and blood:

Be a foretaste for us in the trial of death.

1. Pange lingua gloriosi

Corporis mysterium,

Sanguinisque pretiosi,

Quem in mundi pretium

Fructus ventris generosi,

Rex effudit gentium.

2. Nobis datus, nobis natus

Ex intacta Virgine

Et in mundo conversatus,

Sparso verbi semine,

Sui moras incolatus

Miro clausit ordine.

3. In supremae nocte cenae

Recumbens cum fratribus,

Observata lege plene

Cibis in legalibus,

Cibum turbae duodenae

Se dat suis manibus.

4. Verbum caro, panem verum

Verbo carnem efficit:

Fitque sanguis Christi merum,

Et si sensus deficit,

Ad firmandum cor sincerum

Sola fides suficit.

5. Tantum ergo Sacramentum

Veneremur cernui:

Et antiquum documentum

Novo cedat ritui:

Praestet fides supplementum

Sensuum defectui.

6. Genitori, Genitoque

Laus et iubilatio,

Salus, honor, virtus quoque

Sit et benedictio:

Procedenti ab utroque

Compar sit laudatio. Amen.

1. Adoro te devote, latens Deitas,

quae sub his figuris vere latitas:

tibi se cor meum totum subjicit,

quia te contemplans totum deficit.

2. Visus, tactus, gustus in te fallitur,

sed auditu solo tuto creditur;

credo quidquid dixit Dei Filius:

nil hoc verbo Veritatis verius.

3. In cruce latebat sola Deitas,

at hic latet simul et humanitas:

ambo tamen credens atque confitens,

peto quod petivit latro poenitens.

4. Plagas, sicut Thomas, non intueor:

Deum tamen meum te confiteor:

fac me tibi semper magis credere,

in te spem habere, te diligere.

5. O memoriale mortis Domini!

panis vivus, vitam praestans homini!

Praesta meae menti de te vivere et te

illi semper dulce sapere.

6. Pie pellicane, Iesu Domine, me

immundum munda tuo sanguine;

cuius una stilla salvum facere totum

mundum quit ab omni scelere.

Holy God, we praise thy name;

Lord of all, we bow before thee!

All on earth thy scepter claim,

all in heav’n above adore thee;

infinite thy vast domain, everlasting is thy reign.

infinite thy vast domain, everlasting is thy reign.

Hark! The loud celestial hymn

angel choirs above are raising,

cherubim and seraphim,

in unceasing chorus praising;

fill the heav’ns with sweet accord: “Holy, holy, holy Lord.”

fill the heav’ns with sweet accord: “Holy, holy, holy Lord.”
