Lux Aeterna Epilogue 2005 Introit



The Fallen Asleep- cemetary in Butler Ohio

Lux Aeterna Intriot

Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.
You are praised, God, in Zion,
and homage will be paid to You in Jerusalem.

Hear my prayer,
to You all flesh will come.
Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.

Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy on us.

Day of wrath, day of anger
Will dissolve the world in ashes
As foretold by David and the Sibyl

Great trembling there will be
When The Judge descends from heaven
To examine all things closely.


From The Requiem in D minor by WA Mozart
