2. Hark! the loud celestial hymn, And with white-robed martyrs follow;
Angel choirs above are raising; And from morn till set of sun,
Cherubim and Seraphim, Through the Church the song goes on.
In unceasing chorus praising;
Fill the heavens with sweet accord; 4. Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy! Holy! Holy Lord. Holy Spirit, Three we name Thee,
While in essence only One,
3. Lo! the apostolic train

Undivided God we claim Thee;
Join Thy Sacred Name to hallow; And adoring bend the knee,
Prophets swell the loud refrain, While we own the mystery.

Yet undivided still; • Is plunged as in a sea, Dear home of every heart, Save lest we sink beneath the waves;
Thou art that One alone, Deep in the sweet abyss Where restless yearnings cease, Sweet Sacrament of Rest!
Whose love my heart can fill. Of holy charity. And sorrows all depart. Sweet Sacrament of Rest!
The heav'ns and earth below, There in Thine ear, all trustfully,
Were fashioned by Thy Word; 4. 0 loveliness supreme, We tell our tale of misery; 4. Sweet Sacrament Divine!
How amiable art Thou, And beauty infinite; Sweet Sacrament of Peace! Earth's light and jubilee,
My ever-dearest Lord! O everfiowing stream, Sweet Sacrament of Peace! In Thy far depths doth shine,
And ocean of delight; Thy Godhead's Majesty.
3. To think Thou art my God, O life by which I live, 3. Sweet Sacrament of Rest! Sweet light, so shine on us, we pray,
0 thought forever blest! My truest life above, Ark from the ocean's roar, That earthly joys may fade away;
My heart has overflowed To Thee alone I give Within Thy shelter blest, Sweet Sacrament Divine!
With joy within my breast. My undivided love. Soon may we reach the shore. Sweet Sacrament Divine!

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS
1. Pray while you sing. St. Augustine says, "He prays twice who sings his prayer".
2. Hymns well studied as to text and meaning will be sung with joy and devotion.
Our fervor and sense of thoroughness should prompt us to learn hymns in their
entirety.
Love to sing as many verses as the liturgical program permits.
3. The secret of good congregational singing is a detailed rehearsal outside the sacred
functions. Encourage hearty singing. As St. Thomas Aquinas in his "Lauda
Lively Sion," exhorts us,
"Let your praise be full, sonorous;
Clear and joyful sound the chorus;
Jubilation of the soul."
4. Observe breath marks and indications of tempo. Insist on clear diction and regular
time. Transpose hymns to -suit your choir.
5. Conductors should use conventional gestures when beating time.
or
j 23
6. All these hymns except Gregorian Chants may be sung in 4 part harmony.
7. There are three approved styles of hymn singing:
(a) Direct or continuous—The same group sings every verse.
(b) 1ntip/zonal—Two large groups such as Choir and Congregation alternate
verse by verse.
Do - mi - nus, see - re, (c) Responorial—A soloist or, - better still, two or more chanters, sing a verse
and the full Choir or Congregation responds with the next verse or refrain.
Thus, solos without participation of Choir, ordinarily are not approved.
8. In Gregorian Chant:
(a) = I beat; = 2 beats. All beats are theoretically equal in duration.
(b) Notes marked thus are slightly lengthened.
(c) Retard and observe aause at the full bars. Keep a steady tempo.
(d) Group the notes in free succession of 2 and 3 measure. Use smooth
legato style, avoiding any weak or rough notes.
Slow and sustained 9. Every loyal choirmaster will uphold the Church's laws on sacred music as set
forth in the Motu Proprio of Pope Pius X. This document may be had as a
separate pamphlet; or it may be found in the White List of the Society of St.
Gregory, a publication which gives much information of practical value to every
choirmaster and organist.
N.B.—Phonograph records of these hymns, for home use, or to facilitate teaching in
pie bern schools, will be made if there is sufficient demand.
