Capitulum Responsorium Versus

Sir 44:16-17

Ecce sacérdos magnus, qui in diébus suis plácuit Deo, et invéntus est iustus: * et in témpore iracúndiæ factus est reconciliátio.

Behold an high priest, who in his days pleased God, and was found righteous, and in the time of wrath he was made a propitiation.


Hymnus

1. Jesu, the world’s Redeemer, O hear; thy bishops’ fadeless crown, draw near: Accept with gentlest love today The prayers and praises that we pay. 2. The meek confessor of thy name Today attained a glorious fame; Whose yearly feast, in solemn state, Thy faithful people celebrate. 3. The world and all its boasted good, As vain and passing, he eschewed; And therefore with angelic bands, In endless joy forever stands. 4. Grant then that we, most gracious God, May follow in the steps he trod: And, at his prayer, thy servants free From stain of all iniquity. 5. To thee, O Christ, our loving King, All glory, praise, and thanks we bring: All glory, as is ever meet, To Father and to Paraclete. Amen.
