Thanks very much, Kathy! That's one of my all time favorite hymns - a perennial warhorse of Easter Sunday liturgies in many Christian denominations. We, of course, sang it at Mass today - we went at 12:00 - one of my good friends was cantor. A very good liturgy from start to finsh.

Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
