Hark! the sound of holy voices

Of the glorious body telling

Author: St Thomas Aquinas, 1227-74; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #268 (1986) Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Holy Communion; Office Hymn Corpus Christi Lyrics: 1 Of the glorious body telling, O my tongue, its mysteries sing, And the blood, all price excelling, Which the world’s eternal King, In a noble womb once dwelling, Shed for this world’s ransoming. 2 Given for us, for us descending, Of a virgin to proceed, Man with man in converse blending, Scattered he the gospel seed, Till his sojourn drew to ending, Which he closed in wondrous deed. 3 At the last great supper lying Circled by his chosen band, Duly with the law complying, First he finished its command, Then, immortal food supplying, Gave himself by his own hand. 4 Word-made-flesh, by word he maketh Bread his very flesh to be; Man in wine Christ’s blood partaketh: And if senses fail to see, Faith alone the true heart waketh To behold the mystery. Part 2 Tantum ergo 5 Therefore we, before him bending, This great sacrament revere: Types and shadows have their ending, For the newer rite is here; Faith, our outward sense befriending, Makes the inward vision clear. 6 Glory let us give and blessing To the Father and the Son, Honour, might and praise addressing, While eternal ages run; Ever too his love confessing, Who, from both, with both is one. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: PANGE LINGUA

Part 2 O salutaris hostia 5 O saving Victim, opening wide The gate of heaven to man below; Our foes press hard on every side, Thine aid supply, thy strength bestow. 6 All praise and thanks to thee ascend For evermore, blest One in Three; O grant us life that shall not end, In our true native land with thee.
