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.

FEATURED SCRIPTURE | Revelation 7:9-12

AFTER this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!” And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.”

THE GOLDEN ARROW

May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most incomprehensible and unutterable Name of God be always praised, blessed, loved, adored and glorified in Heaven, on earth, and under the earth, by all the creatures of God, and by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ, in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. Amen.
