Feb 14 – Homily – Fr Ignatius: Hymn to Charity

apostolate — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 15:33:17 +0000

Homily #100214 ( 13min) Play – Today’s reading from the first epistle to the Corinthians is called the Hymn of Charity which speaks so beautifully of the central importance of the Cardinal Virtue of Charity. Without this virtue all the other virtues like intelligence, learning, philanthropy and even sacrificing your life is useless and empty. He then uses the teachings of St Paul’s to enumerate those things in which charity consists.
Ave Maria! Quinquagesima Sunday – Mass: EF, Esto Mihi – Readings: 1st: 1co 13:1-13 – Gsp: luk 18:31-43

Audi, Benigne- A Lenten Hymn

Eliott Yozwiak — Thu, 08 Mar 2018 14:30:27 +0000

Ave Maria,
In the Roman Breviary this hymn is used at Sunday Vespers during Lent from the first Sunday in Lent until the Friday before Passion Sunday.

AUDI, benigne Conditor, nostras preces cum fletibus, sacrata in abstinentia ¹ fusas quadragenaria.	O MERCIFUL Creator, hear! To us in pity bow Thine ear: accept the tearful prayer we raise in this our fast of forty days.
Scrutator alme cordium, infirma tu scis virium; ad te reversis exhibe remissionis gratiam.	Our hearts are open, Lord, to Thee: Thou knowest our infirmity; pour out on all who seek Thy face abundance of Thy pardoning grace.
Multum quidem peccavimus, sed parce confitentibus, tuique laude nominis ² confer medelam languidis.	Our sins are many, this we know; spare us, good Lord, Thy mercy show; and for the honor of Thy name our fainting souls to life reclaim.
Sic corpus extra conteri dona per abstinentiam, ieiunet ut mens sobria a labe prorsus criminum. ³	Give us self-control that springs from discipline of outward things, that fasting inward secretly the soul may purely dwell with Thee.
Praesta, beata Trinitas, concede, simplex Unitas, ut fructuosa sint tuis haec parcitatis munera. Amen.	We pray Thee, Holy Trinity, one God, unchanging Unity, that we from this our abstinence may reap the fruits of penitence. Amen.

O Sacred Head Surrounded- Hymn

Eliott Yozwiak — Thu, 15 Mar 2018 13:32:50 +0000

Ave Maria!
This hymn is based on a long medieval Latin poem, Salve mundi salutare, with stanzas addressing the various parts of Christ’s body hanging on the Cross. The last part of the poem, from which the hymn is taken, is addressed to Christ’s head, and begins “Salve caput cruentatum.” The poem is attributed to St. Bernard of Clairvaux (1091-1153).

Lyrics: O Sacred Head Surrounded (Latin: Salve caput cruentatum, St. Bernard)
O Sacred Head surrounded By crown of piercing thorn!
O bleeding Head so wounded, Reviled and put to scorn!
Death’s pallid hue comes o’er Thee, The glow of life decays,
Yet angel hosts adore Thee, And tremble as they gaze.
In this, Thy bitter passion, Good shepherd, think of me,
With Thy most sweet compassion, Unworthy though I be:
Beneath Thy cross abiding, Forever would I rest;
In Thy dear love confiding, And with Thy presence blest.

Every dream and wish are yours,

Mother of mine, present them to my Lord.

And I see your smiling face,
Ev’ry thought, ev’ry word
Is lost in your embrace.

Veni Sancte Spiritus- Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate

Eliott Yozwiak — Sun, 20 May 2018 00:24:35 +0000

Ave Maria,
As we celebrate Pentecost, may we call down the Holy Spirit with the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate!

VENI, Sancte Spiritus, et emitte caelitus lucis tuae radium.	COME, Holy Ghost, send down those beams, which sweetly flow in silent streams from Thy bright throne above.
Veni, pater pauperum, veni, dator munerum veni, lumen cordium.	O come, Thou Father of the poor; O come, Thou source of all our store, come, fill our hearts with love.
Consolator optime, dulcis hospes animae, dulce refrigerium.	O Thou, of comforters the best, O Thou, the soul’s delightful guest, the pilgrim’s sweet relief.
In labore requies, in aestu temperies in fletu solatium.	Rest art Thou in our toil, most sweet refreshment in the noonday heat; and solace in our grief.
O lux beatissima, reple cordis intima tuorum fidelium.	O blessed Light of life Thou art; fill with Thy light the inmost heart of those who hope in Thee.
Sine tuo numine, nihil est in homine, nihil est innoxium.	Without Thy Godhead nothing can, have any price or worth in man, nothing can harmless be.
Lava quod est sordidum, riga quod est aridum, sana quod est saucium.	Lord, wash our sinful stains away, refresh from heaven our barren clay, our wounds and bruises heal.
Flecte quod est rigidum, fove quod est frigidum, rege quod est devium.	To Thy sweet yoke our stiff necks bow, warm with Thy fire our hearts of snow, our wandering feet recall.
Da tuis fidelibus, in te confidentibus, sacrum septenarium.	Grant to Thy faithful, dearest Lord, whose only hope is Thy sure word, the sevenfold gifts of grace.
Da virtutis meritum, da salutis exitum, da perenne gaudium, Amen, Alleluia.	Grant us in life Thy grace that we, in peace may die and ever be, in joy before Thy face. Amen. Alleluia.
