Jubilate Deo

O be joyful in the Lord all ye lands
Serve the Lord with gladness
And come before His presence with a song
Be sure that Lord He is God
(that the Lord He is God)
It is He that hath made us
And not we ourselves
(and not we ourselves)
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture
O go your way into His gates with thanksgiving
And into His courts with praise
Be thankful unto Him
and speak good of His name
(speak good of His name)
The Lord is gracious
His mercy is everlasting
And His truth endureth
From generation to generation
Glory be to the Father
And to the Son
And to the Holy Ghost
As it was in the beginning
Is now and ever shall be
World without end,
Amen!

Ubi Caritas
02:34
|
|

|
Ubi caritas et amor deus ibi est
Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor
Exultemus et in ipso jucun demor
Timeamus et a memus deum vivum
Et ex corde dili gamus
No sincero
Ubi caritas et amor deus ibi est
Amen

Here is the Little Door
04:08
|
|

|
Here is the little door,
lift up the latch, oh lift!
We need not wander more
but enter with our gift;
Our gift of finest gold.
Gold that was never bought nor sold;
Myrr to be strewn about His bed;
Incense in clouds about His head;
All for the Child that stirs not in His sleep,
But holy slumber hold with ass and sheep.
Bend low about His bed,
for each He has a gift;
See how His eyes awake,
lift up your hands, O lift!
For gold, He gives a keen-edged sword
(Defend with it Thy little Lord!)
For incense, smoke of battle red
Myrrh for the honoured happy dead;
Gifts for His children, terrible and sweet;
Touched by such tiny hands
and Oh such tiny feet.

Prayer to Jesus
04:03
|
|
||
|
Jhesu, since Thou me made and bought,
Be Thou my love and all my thought,
And help that I may to Thee be brought,
Without Thee I may do nought.
Jhesu, since Thou must do Thy will,
And nothing is that Thee may let,
With Thy grace my heart fulfil,
My love and my liking in Thee is set.
Jhesu at Thy will I pray that I might be,
All my heart fulfil,
with perfect love to Thee.
That I have done ill Jhesu forgive Thou me,
And suffer me never to spill
Jhesu for pity
Amen.

Beati Quorum Via
03:36

|
||

Beati quorum via integra est,
Qui ambulant in lege Domini.
Blessed are those who go the way of integrity,
Who walk in the law of God.

Let All Mortal Flesh
03:57
|
|
||
|
Let all mortal flesh keep silence
And stand with fear and trembling
And lift itself above,
above all earthly thought
For the king of kings and lord of lords,
Christ our God
Cometh forth to be our oblation
And to be giv'n for food to the faithful
Before him comes the choirs of angels
With every principality and power
The cherubim with many eyes
And winged seraphim
Who veil their faces
As they shout exultingly the hymn
Alleluia
