Tantum Ergo

Let us, therefore, bow and worship

such a wondrous Sacrament;

let the ancient law and custom

to a newer rite now yield;

let our faith supply conviction

where the senses tire and fail.

To the Father, unbegotten,

and the Sole-begotten Son,

be salvation, blessing, honor,

jubilation, pow’r, and praise;

to the One from both proceeding

equal glory and renown. Amen.

Let us pray.

O God, who in this wonderful Sacrament

have left us a memorial of your Passion,

grant us, we pray,

so to revere the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood

that we may always experience in ourselves

the fruits of your redemption.

Who live and reign for ever and ever.

℟.The response — the line the assembly says or sings together, answering the versicle before it. Amen.
