PANGE LINGUA
Pange, lingua, gloriosi
Corporis Mysterium,
Sanguinisque pretiosi
Quem in mundi pretium
Fructus ventris generosi
Rex effudit gentium.
Nobis datus, nobis natus
Ex intacta Virgine,
Ei in mundo conversatus
Sparso verbi semine,
Sui moras incolatus
Miro clausit ordine.
In supremæ nocte coenæ,
Recubens cum fratribus,
Observata lege plene
Cibis in legalibus,
Cibum turbæ duodenæ
Se dat sùis manibus.
Verbum Caro panem verum
Verbo carnem efficit,
Fitque Sanguis Christi merum
Et, si sensus deficit,
Ad firmandum cor sincerum
Sola fides sufficit.
Tantum ergo Sacramentum Veneremur cernui,
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedati ritui:
Præstet fides supplementum
Sensuum defectui.
Genitori, Genitoque
laus et jubilatio;
SaIus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedictio;
Procedenti ab Utroque
Compar sit laudatio.
Amen.
URBS BEATA JERUSALEM
Urbs beata Jerusalem
Dicta pacis visio
Que construitur in celis
Vivis ex lapidibus
Et Angelis coornata
Ut sponsata comite.
Nova veniens e celo
Nuptiali thalamo
Preparata ut sponsata
Copulatur Domino
Piatee et muri ejus
Ex auro purissimo.
Porte nitent margaritis
Aditis patentibus
Et vir tute meritorum
Illuc introducitur
Omnis qui pro Christi nomine
Hic in mundo premitur.
Tonsioribus pressuris
Expoliti lapides
Suisque aptantur locis
Per manus artificis
Disponuntur permansuri
Sacris edificas.
