REQUIEM
by John Rutter
English Translation by John Rutter

Requiem Aeternum

Requiem aeternum dona eis Domine: et lux perpetua luceat eis.
Te decet hymnus, Deus in Sion: et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem. Exaudi orationem meam, ad te omnis caro veniet.
Kyrie eleison. Christe eleison. Kyrie eleison.

Grant them rest eternal, Lord our God, we pray to Thee: and light
perpetual shine on them for ever. Thou Lord, art worshipped in Sion; Thy praises shall ever be sung in all Jerusalem. O hear us:
O Lord, hear thy faithful servants' prayer; to Thee shall all mortal flesh return.

Meditation 1



Out of the Deep                                                            Psalm 130

Out of the deep have I called unto Thee, O Lord: Lord, hear my voice. O let Thine ears consider well the voice of my complaint.
If Thou, Lord, wilt be extreme to mark what is done amiss,
O Lord, who may abide it? For there is mercy with Thee:
therefore shalt Thou be feared. I look for the Lord; my soul doth wait for Him: in His word is my trust. My soul fleeth unto the Lord; before the morning watch, I say, before the morning watch.
O Israel, trust in the Lord, for with the Lord there is mercy: and with Him is plenteous redemption. And He shall redeem Israel from all His sins.

Meditation 2


Pie Jesu

Pie Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem. Pie Jesu Domine, dona eis sempiternam requiem.

Blessed Jesus, Lord I pray in Thy mercy, grant them rest. Lord our God, we pray Thee, grant them everlasting rest.

Meditation 3



Sanctus                                                                                Gabriel Faure

Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dominus Deus Sabaoth.
Pleni sunt coeli et terra gloria tua. Hosanna in excelsis.

Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of power and majesty.
Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory. Hosanna in the highest.

Meditation 4


Agnus Dei                                The burial service, 1662 Book of Common Prayer

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona eis requiem.
Lamb of God that takest away the sins of the world:
in Thy mercy, grant them rest.

Man that is born of a woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow. In the midst of life we are in death: of whom may we seek for succour? I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die.

Meditation 5



The Lord’s Supper                                               Chaplain Mac McRoberts

The Lord Is My Shepherd                                       Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd: therefore can I lack nothing. He shall feed me in a green pasture and lead me forth beside the waters of comfort. He shall convert my soul and bring me forth in the paths of righteousness, for his Name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff comfort me. Thou shalt prepare a table before me against them that trouble me: Thou has anointed my head with oil, and my cup shall be full. But thy loving kindness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Meditation 6


Lux aeterna                                                   The burial service, 1662 Book of Common Prayer

I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord, for they rest from their labours: even so saith the Spirit.

Lux Aeterna luceat eis, Domine: cum sanctis tuis in aeternum,
quia pius es. Requiem aeternum dona eis Domine:
et lux perpetua luceat eis.

Light eternal shine upon them, Lord we pray: with saints and angels ever dwelling, for Thy mercy's sake, may they rest in peace. Grant them rest eternal, Lord our God, we pray to Thee: and light perpetual shine on them for ever.
