THE BLESSED SACRAMENT
Jesus, Food of Angels
Communion Hymn Partendo dal Mondo Translated by Father E. Vaughan, C. S. S. R.
Ch. Gounod Arr. by N. A. M.
Andante Religioso
1.
Jesus, food of angels, Monarch of the heart; Oh, that I could never From Thy Face depart!
Yes, Thou ever dwellest Here for love of me, Hidden Thou remainest, G.o.d of Majesty.
2.
Soon I hope to see Thee, And enjoy Thy love, Face to face, sweet Jesus, In Thy heav'n above.
But on earth an exile My delight shall be Ever to be near Thee Veiled for love of me.

THE BLESSED SACRAMENT
O Jesus Christ, remember Gesu Sacramentato
Father Caswall Nicola A. Montani
With devotion
1.
O Jesus Christ, remember, When Thou shalt come again, Upon the clouds of Heaven, With all Thy s.h.i.+ning train; When ev'ry eye shall see Thee In Deity revealed, Who now upon this altar In silence art concealed;
2.
Remember then, O Saviour, I supplicate of Thee, That here I bowed before Thee Upon my bended knee; That here I owned Thy Presence, And did not Thee deny; And glorified Thy greatness, Though hid from human eye.
3.
Accept Divine Redeemer, The homage of my praise; Be Thou the light and honor And glory of my days; Be Thou my consolation When death is drawing nigh; Be Thou my only treasure Through all eternity.

THE BLESSED SACRAMENT
Wondrous love that cannot falter
(Hymn of the a.s.sociation of Perpetual Adoration) Tr. Rt. Rev. Msgr. H. T. Henry Ch. Gounod Arr. by N. A. M.
Andante con espressione
1.
Wondrous love that cannot falter!
Jesus in the Host doth dwell Day and night upon the Alter Near to those He loves so well.
Refrain Low in endless wors.h.i.+p bent, Praise the Blessed Sacrament.
2.
Angel hosts are hushed in wonder And adore with folded wings: For the lowly Species under, Hidden lies the King of Kings.
3.
Tho' the Heav'nly choir rejoices Praise and sing His loving ear Seeks the tribute of our voices: 'Tis for us He waiteth here!
4.
All He hath in highest Heaven Veiled in the Host we see: And to us the care is given Of His wondrous poverty.
5.
Bread of Angels! Who can measure All it means? this daily food And the daily granted treasure Of His sacrificial Blood?
6.
Bending low in adoration Ever constant let us be, Making Jesus Reparation For the worlds in constancy.
