Trinity Sunday
Te Deum An abbreviated title commonly given both to the original Latin text and the translations of a hymn in rhythmical prose, of which the opening words, Te Deum laudamus , formed its earliest known title (namely in the Rule of Saint Caesarius for monks, written probably when he was Abbot of Lérins, before AD 502). This longer title is used in the " Rules for Virgins " composed by Saint Caesarius while Archbishop of Arles, and by his second successor in the same see, Saint Aurelian, also in the Rule of Saint Benedict; and generally in earlier literature. The hymn is also sometimes styled Hymnus Ambrosianus , the "Ambrosian Hymn" ; and in the Roman Breviary it is still entitled, at the end of Matins for Sunday, Hymnus SS. Ambrosii et Augustini. — The Te Deum, by H.T. Henry. READ MORE... http://www.canticanova.com/articles/hymns/artd41.htm We praise thee, O God; we acknowledge thee to be the Lord.
