Choir Texts

Below are the texts and translations of the two choral pieces the choir will sing at the 10:30 mass this Sunday:

At the Offertory: Benedictus es, Domine by John Rutter
Glory to you, Lord God of our fathers;
you are worthy of praise; glory to you.
Glory to you for the radiance of your holy Name;
we will praise you and highly exalt you for ever.

Glory to you, in the splendor of your temple;
on the throne of your majesty, glory to you.
Glory to you, seated between the Cherubim;
we will praise you and highly exalt you forever.

Glory to you, beholding the depths;
in the high vault of heaven, glory to you.
Glory to you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;
we will praise you and highly exalt you forever.

At the Communion: Ave verum corpus, plainchant, mode VI
Hail, true Body, born of Mary the Virgin;
truly suffering, sacrificed on the cross for man;
from Whose pierced side flowed water and blood.
Be to us a foretaste at death's trial,
O sweet Jesus, O loving Jesus, O Jesus Son of Mary.
