- I am the day
I am the day, soon to be born
I am the light before the morningI am the night, that will be dawn
I am the end and the beginningI am the alpha and omega
The night and day, the first and lastIlluminosa, immortalis
Sancta gloriosa
Illuminosa, immortalis
Sancta gloriosa
In aeternaI am the life, soon to begin
I am the new hope in the morningI am the darkness, soon to be light
I am the rising and the falling - Stay with me
You are everything I know
Which ever way I go
For ever stay with meVenite angeli
Cantate domino
LaudateYou see me through when ever I’m afraid
However far away
For ever comfort meYou’re on my side whichever way I choose
In everything I do
For ever stay with me - Voca me
As secret as a dream you call
As silent as the night for all you cry
LacrymosaLacrymosa dies illa
Dolorosa Domine
Voca
Voca MeYou whisper in my silent sleep
You answer to my call when lost I cry
Lacrymosa - Song of enchantment
A song of enchantment I sang me there
In a green green wood by waters fair
Just as the words came up to me
I sang it under a wild wood treeWiddershins turned I singing it low
Watching the wild birds come and go
No cloud in the deep dark blue to be seen
Under the thick thatch branches greenTwilight came, silence came
The planet of evening’s silver flame
By darkning paths I wandered through
Thickets trembling with drops of dewBut the music is lost and the words are gone
Of the song I sang as I sat along
Ages and ages have fallen on me
On the wood and the pool and the elder tree - Ave Verum
Ave verum corpus natum
De maria virgineAttende Domini et Miserere
Quia peccavimus tibiA silent mystery
The break of day
A moment shines across eternityA silent harmony
The sounds of hope
A moment echoes through eternity - Do not stand
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints in snow,
I am the sunlight and ripened grain.
I am the gentle Autumn rain.When you awake in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep. - When a knight
When a knight won his spurs in the stories of old
he was gentle and brave he was gallant and bold
with a shield on his arm and a lance in his hand
for God and for valour he rode through the landNo charger have I, and no sword by my side
yet still to adventure and battle I ride
though back into storyland giants have fled
and the knights are no more and the dragons are deadLet faith be my shield and let joy be my steed
gainst the dragons of anger the ogres of greed
and let me set free with the sword of my youth
from the castle of darkness the power of the truth - A new heaven
And I saw a new heaven
For the first earth, and the first earth
Are passed awayIllumina, perpetua
And there shall be no more death
No crying
For these are passed away - I vow to thee my country
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love:
the love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
that lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
the love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
the love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago,
most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
we may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
and soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
and her ways are ways of gentleness and all her paths are peace. - Lament
Jerusalem convertere ad Dominum Deum tuum
Defecerunt prae lacrimis oculi mei
conturbata sunt visera mea
LamentioneMagna est enim velut mars contritio tua
quiis mendebitur tuiEffesum est in terra ie cur meum
super contritione filiae populi mei
cum deficeret parvulus et lactens in plateis oppidi - Twilight

Call to thee - Be still my soul
Be still my soul – the Lord is on thy side;
bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
leave to thy God to order and provide;
in every change – he faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul – thy best thy heavenly Friend
through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.Be still my soul – when dearest friends depart,
and all is darkened in the vale of tears,
then shalt thou better know his love – his heart,
who comes to soothe thy sorrow and thy fears.
Be still, my soul – the waves and winds still know
his voice who ruled them – while he dwelt below.Be still my soul the hour is hastening on
when we shall be forever with the Lord,
when disappointment – grief and fear are gone,
sorrow forgot – love’s purest joys restored,.
Be still my soul – when change and tears are past,
all safe and blessed – we shall meet at last. - Adoramus
