O Magnum Mysterium
Music: Kenneth L. DeJong
Text: Traditional
O magnum mysterium,
et admirabile sacramentum,
ut animalia viderent Dominum natum,
iacentem in praesepio!
Beata Virgo,
cujus viscerameruerunt portare
Dominum Iesum Christum.
Alleluia!
The Works of Christmas
Music: Elizabeth H. Norton
Text: Howard Thurman
When the song of the angels is stilled,
when the star in the sky is gone,
when the kings and princes are home,
when the shepherds are back with their flocks,
the work of Christmas begins:
to find the lost,
to heal the broken,
to feed the hungry,
to release the prisoner,
to rebuild the nations,
to bring peace among the people,
to make music in the heart.
