Product Description
Karl Kang, a prominent Catholic composer from Korea, is known for his beautiful compositions such as 'Ave Verum', 'Ave Maria', and 'The Lord Bless You and Keep You'. His latest work, 'Ubi Caritas', is a stunning a cappella chorus set to the lyrics of the Responsories, which begin with "Ubi cáritas et amor, Deus ibi est." and are traditionally sung during the foot washing ceremony on Holy Thursday. This lyrical and heartwarming piece is perfect for use in choir concerts, music classes, and as a repertoire of praise songs.
Ubi cáritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Congregávit nos in unum Christi amor.
Exsultémus et in ipso iucundémur.
Timeámus et amémus Deum vivum.
Et ex corde diligámus nos sincéro.
Ubi cáritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Simul ergo cum in unum congregámur:
Ne nos mente dividámur, caveámus.
Cessent iúrgia malígna, cessent lites.
Et in médio nostri sit Christus Deus.
Ubi cáritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Simul quoque cum beátis videámus
Gloriánter vultum tuum, Christe Deus:
Gáudium, quod est imménsum atque probum.
Sæcula per infiníta sæculórum. Amen.
Where charity and love are, God is there.
Christ's love has gathered us into one.
Let us rejoice and be pleased in Him.
Let us fear, and let us love the living God.
And may we love each other with a sincere heart.
Where charity and love are, God is there.
As we are gathered into one body,
Beware, lest we be divided in mind.
Let evil impulses stop, let controversy cease,
And may Christ our God be in our midst.
Where charity and love are, God is there.
And may we with the saints also,
See Thy face in glory, O Christ our God:
The joy that is immense and good,
Unto the ages through infinite ages. Amen.
