Christmas Songs
Panis Angelicus
Latin
Panis angelicus
Fit panis hominum
Dat panis cœlicus
Figuris terminum:
O res mirabilis!
Manducat Dominum
Pauper, Pauper
Servus et humilis
Te trina Deitas
Unaque poscimus:
Sic nos tu visita
Sicut te colimus
Per tuas semitas
Duc nos quo tendimus
Ad lucem quam inhabitas
Amen
English Translation
May the Bread of Angels
Become bread for mankind
The Bread of Heaven puts
All foreshadowings to an end
Oh, thing miraculous!
The body of the Lord will nourish
The poor, the poor
The servile, and the humble
You God, Three In One
We beseech
That You visit us
As we worship You
By Your ways
Lead us where we are heading
To the light that You inhabitest
Amen
