Faure Tantum Ergo

Tantum ergo, Op. 65, No. 2
Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924)
St. Bartholomew’s Choir
Paolo Bordignon, Organist and Choirmaster
Tantum ergo Sacramentum
Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedat ritui:
Præstet fides supplementum
Sensuum defectui.
Genitori, Genitoque
Laus et iubilatio,
Salus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedictio:
Procedenti ab utroque
Compar sit laudatio.
Amen.
Lo! the sacred Host we hail,
Lo! o’er ancient forms departing
Newer rites of grace prevail;
Faith for all defects supplying,
Where the feeble senses fail.
To the Everlasting Father,
And the Son Who reigns on high
With the Holy Ghost proceeding
Forth from Each eternally,
Be salvation, honor, blessing,
Might, and endless majesty.
Amen.
Words: St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274), trans. Edward Caswall (1814-1878).
