En Ut Superba Criminum | Our Sins Have Pierced the Sacred Heart
Chant School
Link to Music * Lo, how the savage crew Of our proud sins hath rent The Heart of our all-gracious God, That Heart so innocent. * The soldiers quivering lance Our guilt it was that drave, Our wicked deeds that to its point Such cruel sharpness gave. * O wounded Heart, whence sprang The Church, the Saviours bride; Thou Door of our Salvations Ark Set in its mystic side. * Thou holy fount, whence flows The sacred sevenfold flood. Where we our filthy roles may cleanse In the Lambs saving Blood: * By sorrowful relapse, Thee will we rend no more; But like the flames, those types of love, Strive heavenward to soar. * Father and Son supreme And Spirit, hear our cry; Whose is the kingdom, praise and power, Through all eternity.

About Podcast
Love Gregorian Chant but can't sing it? The Chant School podcast is designed to help you sing the ancient chants of the Church with ease.
In the Chant School, you will learn the most ancient melodies and texts in the Christian tradition. St. Hugh of Cluny once spoke of how the learning, practicing, and singing of Gregorian chant is a sure way to grow in holiness, in closeness to the Word, and in submission to the discipline of singing God’s praises. Floriani has taken these words to heart, and it is our intent to inspire and educate the next generation of Catholic musicians in the spirit of this beautiful inheritance. We hope you enjoy learning how to sing Gregorian Chant -- the greatest artistic treasure of the Catholic Church!
