Composed by M. Roger Holland, II. Body and Blood of Christ A, Body and Blood of Christ B, Body and Blood of Christ C, Holy Thursday. In Spirit and Truth. Sacred. Octavo. 12 pages. GIA Publications #10307. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-10307).UPC: 785147030713. English. Text Source: Latin: Thomas Aquinas, ca. 1225&ndash,1274, English para. James Quinn, SJ, 1919&ndash,2010; Translation: James Quinn. Text by Thomas Aquinas.
This edition for Holy Thursday was written to reflect African American idioms. "Pange lingua" has rhythm and motion, yet acknowledges the solemn tone of the liturgical moment. As the ritual action moves from procession to adoration and repose, the setting moves to "Tantum ergo." Though it, too, should have motion, it is more reflective of this most solemn moment: the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The closing "Amen" ending on a perfect fifth recalls the style of ancient chant and organum.
