O Rex Gentium With The Magnficat - Gregorian Chant

 

O Rex Gentium, et desideratus earum,

lapisque angularis, qui facis utraque unum:

veni, et salva hominem.

quem de limo formast.


O King of the nations, and their desire,

the cornerstone making both one;

Come and save humanity

who you fashioned from clay.

 

Magnificat anima mea Dominum;

Et exultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo,

Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae; ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes.


Quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen ejus,

Et misericordia ejus a progenie in progenies timentibus eum.

Fecit potentiam in bracchio suo;

Dispersit superbos mente cordis sui.


Deposuit potentes de sede, et exaltavit humiles.

Esurientes implevit bonis, et divites dimisit inanes.

Suscepit Israel, puerum suum, recordatus misericordiae suae,

Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros, Abraham et semini ejus in saecula.


Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto,

sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper: et in Saecula saeculorum. Amen.

 

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,

my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,

for He has looked with favor on His humble servant.


From this day all generations will call me blessed,

the Almighty has done great things for me,

and holy is His Name.


He has mercy on those who fear Him

in every generation.


He has shown the strength of his arm,

He has scattered the proud in their conceit.


He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,

and has lifted up the humble.


He has filled the hungry with good things,

and the rich He has sent away empty.


He has come to the help of His servant Israel

for He has remembered his promise of mercy,

the promise He made to our fathers,

to Abraham and his children for ever.


Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,

as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever.
