Seasons of Christ: Lent & Easter

Join us on a musical journey through the Seasons of Christ: Lent & Easter. O Lord Throughout These Forty Days (1562nd year of our Lord.) O Lord throughout these forty days, You prayed and kept the fast. Inspire repentance for our sin, And free us from our past. You fought with Satan and you won, Your faithfulness endured. Give us your strength, your skill, your trust, In God's eternal word. Though parched and hungry, yet you prayed, And fixed your eyes above. So teach us to deny ourselves, That we may know God's love. Be with us through this season Lord, And all our earthly days. That when the final Easter dawns, We join in heaven's praise.

Join us on a musical journey through the seasons of Christ: Lent & Easter. Tree of Life (1950th year of our Lord) Tree of life and awesome mystery, In your death we are reborn. Though you die in all of history, Still You rise with every morn, Still you rise with every morn. Seed that dies to rise in glory, May we see ourselves in you. If we learn to live your story, We may die to rise anew, We may die to rise anew. We remember truth once spoken, Love passed on through act and word. Every person lost and broken, Wears the body of our Lord, Wears the body of our Lord. Gentle Jesus, mighty spirit, Come inflame our hearts anew. We may all your joy inherit, If we bear the cross with you, If we bear the cross with you. Christ you lead and we shall follow, Stumbling though our steps may be. One with you in joy and sorrow, We the river, you the sea, We the river, you the sea.

Ex More Docti Mystico (604th year of our Lord) Ex more docti mystico Servemus hoc jejunium, Deno dierum circulo Ducto quater notissimo. Lex et prophet&ælig; primitus Hoc prætulerunt, postmodum Christus sacravit, omnium Rex atque factor temporum. Utamur ergo parcius Verbis, cibis et potibus, Somno, jocis et artius Perstemus in custodia. Vitemus autem noxia, Quæ subruunt mentes vagas, Nullumque demus callidi Hosti locum tyrannidi. Flectamus iram vindicem, Ploremus ante judicem, Clamemus ore supplici, Dicamus omnes cernui: Nostris malis offendimus Tuam Deus clementiam; Effunde nobis desuper, Remissor, indulgentiam. Memento quod sumus tui, Licet caduci, plasmatis: Ne des honorem nominis Tui, precamur, alteri. Laxa malum quod fecimus, Auge bonum quod poscimus, Placere quo tandem tibi Possimus hic, et perpetim. Præsta, beata Trinitas, Concede, simplex Unitas, Ut fructuosa sint tuis Jejuniorum munera.

O Merciful Redeemer (604th year of our Lord) O merciful Redeemer hear; In pity now incline your ear; Accept the contrite prayers we raise, In this our Lent of forty days Our hearts are open, Lord to see; And knowing our iniquity, Pour out on us your healing grace, Restore to life a fallen race Our sins are great, our wills are weak; But your forgiveness, Lord we seek, And for the glory of your name, Do now our wounded souls reclaim. O grant most holy Trinity, And undivided unity, That these our holy Lenten days Increase our merit and your praise.

His glory is this day revealed, His word a two edged sword. We glimpse the splendor and the power, Of him who conquered death. The Christ in whom the universe, Knows God's creating breath. Of every creed and nation King, In him all strife is stilled, The promise made to Abraham, In him has been fulfilled. The prophets stand and with great joy, Give witness as they gaze. The Father with a sign has sealed, Our trust, our hope, our praise. The glory that today our eyes, Have glimpsed of God's own Son, Will help us ever sing with love, Of three who are but one.

Cuius animam gementem, contristatam et dolentem pertransivit gladius. now at length the sword has passed. O quam tristis et afflicta fuit illa benedicta, mater Unigeniti! Quae maerebat et dolebat, pia Mater, dum videbat nati poenas inclyti. Quis est homo qui non fleret, matrem Christi si videret in tanto supplicio? Quis non posset contristari Christi Matrem contemplari dolentem cum Filio? Pro peccatis suae gentis vidit Iesum in tormentis, et flagellis subditum. Vidit suum dulcem Natum moriendo desolatum, dum emisit spiritum. Eia, Mater, fons amoris me sentire vim doloris fac, ut tecum lugeam. Fac, ut ardeat cor meum in amando Christum Deum ut sibi complaceam. Sancta Mater, istud agas, crucifixi fige plagas cordi meo valide. Tui Nati vulnerati, tam dignati pro me pati, poenas mecum divide. Fac me tecum pie flere, crucifixo condolere, donec ego vixero. Iuxta Crucem tecum stare, et me tibi sociare in planctu desidero. Virgo virginum praeclara, mihi iam non sis amara, fac me tecum plangere. Fac, ut portem Christi mortem, passionis fac consortem, et plagas recolere. Fac me plagis vulnerari, fac me Cruce inebriari, et cruore Filii. Flammis ne urar succensus, per te, Virgo, sim defensus in die iudicii. Christe, cum sit hinc exire, da per Matrem me venire ad palmam victoriae. Quando corpus morietur, fac, ut animae donetur paradisi gloria. Amen.
