The Last Mass

7/15/2015

I guess I had shared this on Facebook, but had never put it on my blog. This is the Video of my last Mass at the Parish, 10:00am on June 28, 2015 at St. Edward Catholic Church, Newark, CA. Not all the nine masses at the parish were like this, but every Sunday it was celebrated as a Missa Cantata in the Ordinary Form. The Mass was in English, but the Propers and the Ordinary and some of the Dialogues were sung in Latin

Almighty God deserves from us the very best form of worship in thanksgiving and praise that we can offer to Him in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

Below are verses 4-6 of the Hymn at Matins of the Office of Reparation
(Thanks, Dom Mark)

4. Blasphemers circle ’round, with fangs of hatred bared,
To pierce with cruel words the Lamb in thorns ensnared,
Betrayed and sold again, his Passion still unfolds
In sacrilege and treachery.

5. Upon thine altars shine, O long desiréd King,
With radiance all divine and healing in thy wings;
O everlasting Love, reveal thy hidden Face,
That men may own thee, and adore.

6. Zeal for thy House profaned by men so wantonly,
Consumes our heart and soul, O gracious Trinity;
Open to us that House ne’er stained by evil’s blight,
Where Saints with thee abide in light. Amen

Eric, Lani, and our son Royce
