Hymns

Just a collections of modern songs and ancient hymns that I found while looking that I want to share with you. Posted these to give easier access to those who want to find them.

1. Ubi Caritas

Ubi caritas est vera, est vera Deus ibi est

Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor

Exultemus et in ipso iucundemur

Timeanus, et amenus Deum Vivum

Et ex corde, diligamus nos sincero.

Ubi caritas est vera, Deus ibi est

Simul ergo cum in unum congregamor;

Ne nos mente dividamur, caveamus

Cessent iurgia maligna, cessent lites.

Et in medio nostri sit Christus Deus.

Ubi caritas est vera, Deus ibi est

Simul quoque cum beatis videamus,

Glorianter vultum tuum, Christus Deus;

Gaudium quod est immensum, atque probum,

Saecula per infinita saeculorum. Amen.

Ubi Caritas is one of the earliest Christian latin hymns, sometimes dated to the time of the Roman Empire. Used by the Catholic Church since that time, it is usually used in the Holy Eucharist and Holy Thursday. It sounds very beautiful when you hear a choir. I put this up so that those who want to read it have easy access to it, and I may post more hymns in the future.
