It's from That the Bones You Have Crushed May Thrill blog; go there for the video and to hear it sung.
Here are the lyrics:
The Ballad of Summorum Pontificum
It was the 7th July 2007
“The most beautiful day
This side of Heaven”
A treasure was released
The Mass of all Ages
The Missal was closed
Now a Priest turns the pages
So we kneel down and pray the Confiteor
Now he’s facing the right way, towards the Lord
Ad Deum quit laetificat juvemtutem meum
He turns around and the people say give us some more!
For over 50 years
A Mass that lay hidden
Came out of the closet
No moth there had bitten
No dust was upon it
For this Mass is timeless
You can tell when you walk through the door!
You can hear the bells ring out thrice at the Sanctus
He turns around and he says "Oratre Fratres"
Priest and people pray Domine non sum dignus
And the people say give us some more
Some more
Summorum Pontificum!
Gimme some more, some more
Gimme some more
Some more
Summorum Pontificum!
Gimme some more, some more, give us some more!
Ecce Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata mundi
Now we can hear the words ring out
Every Sunday
The Latin Mass is back
Put your guitars on the floor
Put your guitars on the floor
We have Communion kneeling and on the tongue
All ages they pass
All ages they vary
The Mass of Ages belongs
In our seminaries
Our Bishops they don’t want it
Oh if only they could
Say “God bless our Pope
The great and the good!”
Some more
Summorum Pontificum!
Gimme some more, some more
Gimme some more
Some more
Summorum Pontificum!
Gimme some more, some more
Gimme some more!
The Mass that brings sinners
To the Fountain of grace
The Mass that made martyrs
Embrace their pains
The Mass that brought hope
To the poor and abandoned
Finding in Jesus (bow head)
The perfect Companion
But that Mass is back (back)
To liberal dismay
That Mass is back (back)
To liberal dismay
That Mass is back (back)
To liberal dismay
That Mass is back (back)
You might find one today!
Some more
Summorum Pontificum!
Gimme some more, some more
Gimme some more
Some more
Summorum Pontificum!
Gimme some more, some more
Gimme some more!
(Repeat x 2)

This side of Heaven”
"That Mass is back...to liberal dismay..."
ReplyDeleteIndeed. And so long as Liberal is in control, God forbid that the Faithful should have access to it - even in death!
