Bluegrass Song Version by Keith John Paul Horcasitas, accompanied by Lucille Labauve with vocals and harmonica, of the famous hymn written by Saint Thomas Aquinas for the Feast of Corpus Christi - cd soon available per Data Transfer, Inc. (http://datatransferonline.com/home.htm)
Panis angelicus
fit panis hominum;
Dat panis coelicus
figuris terminum:
O res mirabilis!
Manducat Dominum
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:
The angelic bread
becomes the bread of men;
The heavenly bread
ends all prefigurations:
What wonder!
The Lord is eaten
by a poor and humble servant.
Triune God,
We beg of you:
visit us,
just as we worship you.
By your ways,
lead us where we are heading,
to the light in which you dwell.
Amen.
