It's songs like this that make me so proud to be Catholic. Praise be to God and his Church! May God continue to bless the Church with overflowing graces and may the world one day realize the Way the Truth and the Life that Jesus has to offer, especially through the Body Blood Soul and Divinity present in the Most Holy and Divine Eucharist!
You know it's too bad stations like KLove only play his 'noncatholic' sounding songs which is why people are surprised when they find out he's Catholic.
Hey all, if you play guitar, have Guitar Pro 6 software, and would like to have the sheet music for this song, I just uploaded it to Ultimate - Guitar dot com. You can find it there. :]
I went to a retreat this weekend and during adoration they played this song. I've been looking for it because when I heard it I broke down crying. Its so beautiful and it expresses His mercy and it blows me away and its just PURE GOLD. so so so so beautiful. Thank you God, for giving us this amazing man.
Can someone tell me what tune did he use for the verses??? I know its an offertory hymn, we sing it during Mass. I just can't remember, this song is AMAZING!!!! Thank God for Matt!
This is one of the most powerful songs ever and whenever I listen to it it reminds me of the best 5 nights of my life (steubenville conference friday's and saturday's)
"Adoration"... The first 2 verses are an English translation of "Tantum Ergo", itself the last 2 stanzas of "Pange Lingua" - a hymn written by St. Thomas Aquinas for the Feast of Corpus Christi.
Jesus, Lamb of God, saving love for all Lord of heaven and earth, Father's love for all I bow to You Jesus, Lamb of God, saving love for all Lord of heav'n and earth I bow to You, bow to You, I bow to You Pour upon us, Lord of mercy Spirit of Thy selfless love Make of us one true heart yearning For the glory of thy Son Jesus, fire of justice blazing Gladdening light forevermore
Down in adoration falling This great sacrament we hail Over ancient forms departing Newer rites of grace prevail Faith for all defects supplying Where the feeble senses fail To the everlasting Father And the Son who reigns on high With the Spirit blest, proceeding Forth from each eternally Be salvation, honor, blessing Might and endless majesty
Thanks for posting! This is in my opinion the most beautiful Hymn of the Church. And Matt Maher interprets it so so well. Your pictures are also beautiful. This is a nice video to watch before saying compline or other night prayers.

Tantum Ergo was good enough. He didn't need to add all that stuff. haha. But he is amazing nonetheless.

@Frankie1410 I know the first part came from Tantum ergo written by St Thomas Aquinas, but as for the rest I am unsure. I hope this helps some what.

I love Matt Maher, he's got what many artists dont have: a mentality that says "I'll get out of the way and let Jesus do the rest."

@tbraun84 It is. Although, I like the older version version, but there are only minor changes- mostly use of the word Lo. It's good though :)
