Tantum ergo - Les Prêtres Übersetzung ins Englische

Tantum ergo

Tantum ergo, Sacramentum
Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum,
Novo cedat ritui:
Praestet fides suplementum,
Sensuum defectui.
Genitori, Genitoque,
Laus et jubilatio:
Salus, honor, virtus quoque,
Sit et benedictio:
Procedenti abutroque,
Comparsit laudatio.

Tantum ergo

Therefore only, Sacrament,
Let us bow down in worship,
And the ancient figure,
Let it yield to the new rite:
May faith provide the supplement,
For the defect of our senses.
To the Father and the Begotten,
Praise and jubilation:
Salvation, honour, power also,
And blessing be to both:
Proceeding from both,
Let praise be given.
