Haydn (1767 - 1806) Text: Mainz Gesangbuch,1661 Performed by Choir of the Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin Mary at The Easter festival of parish choirs "Let the hosts of angels rejoice!" - Siberia Texts (Latin) 1. O esca viatorum, O panis Angelorum, O manna cælitum! Esurientes ciba, Dulcedine non priva Cor Te quærentium! 2. O lympha, fons amoris Qui puro Salvatoris E corde profluis, Te sitientes pota, Hæc sola nostra vota, His una sufficis. 3. O Iesu! Tuum vultum Quem colimus occultum Sub panis specie, Fac ut, remoto velo, Aperta nos in cælo Cernamus acie. English 1. O Food of men wayfaring, the bread of angels sharing, O manna from on high! We hunger; Lord, supply us, nor thy delights deny us, whose hearts to thee draw nigh. 2. O stream of love past telling, O purest fountain, welling from out the Saviour’s side! We faint with thirst; revive us, of thine abundance give us, and all we need provide. 3. O Jesus, by thee bidden, we here adore thee, hidden ’neath forms of bread and wine. Grant when the veil is riven, we may behold, in heaven, thy countenance divine.
