Excerpt:
Introitus
Grant them eternal rest, O Lord,
and may perpetual light shine on them.
Thou, O God, art praised in Sion,
and unto Thee shall the vow
be performed in Jerusalem.
Hear my prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come.
Grant them eternal rest, 0 Lord,
and may perpetual light shine on them.
Communio
May eternal light shine on them, O Lord.
with Thy saints for ever, because
Thou art merciful.
Grant the dead eternal rest, O Lord,
and may perpetual light shine on them,
with Thy saints for ever,
because Thou are merciful.
Too many notes. Looks like a period band as well. nice.
Mozart’s Requiem is probably one of the pinnacls of Western Civilization. In Jean Raspail’s novel, Camp of the Saints, Mozart’s Requiem played continuously on the radio as the barbarian hoards came ashore in what would be the end of Western Civilization.
