Tr. by Rev. F. Campbell Ch. Gounod Arr. by N. A. M.
Andante religioso
1.
What a sea of tears and sorrows Did the soul of Mary toss To and fro upon its billows While she wept her bitter loss; In her arms her Jesus holding, Torn so newly from the Cross.
2.
Oh, that mournful Virgin Mother, See her tears how fast they flow Down upon His mangled Body Wounded Side and th.o.r.n.y Brow; While His Hands and Feet she kisses, Picture of immortal woe.
3.
Oft, and oft His Arms and Bosom, Fondly straining to her own; Oft, her pallid lips imprinting On each Wound of her dear Son: Till at last in swoons of anguish, Sense and consciousness are gone.
4.
Gentle Mother, we beseech thee, By thy tears and troubles sore; By the death of thy dear Offspring, By the b.l.o.o.d.y Wounds He bore; Touch our hearts with that true sorrow Which affected thee of yore.

The Lord's Prayer Our Father, Who Art in Heaven
Nicola A. Montani
Andante religioso
Our Father Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name; Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth, as it is heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespa.s.ses, As we forgive those who trespa.s.s against us.
And lead us not into temptation; But deliver us from evil.
Amen.
