Regem cui omnia vivunt - Matins for the Dead

This chant is taken from the office for the Matins for the Dead. The images used in this video are “El Descendimiento“ by Roger van der Weyden, The “Pieta“ by William Bouguereau, and St Pius X Mass on His 50th anniversary. Here follow the portions of the Matins that are used in this track, in Latin and English: Regem, cui omnia vivunt, Venite adoremus. (x2) Venite exultemus Domino, iubilemus Deo salutari nostro: praeoccupemus faciem eius in confessione: et in psalmis iubilemus ei. Regem, cui omnia vivunt, Venite adoremus. Requiem aeternam dona eis Domine: et lux perpetua luceat eis. Venite adoremus. Regem, cui omnia vivunt, Venite adoremus. Credo quod redemptor meus vivit: et in novissimo die de terra surrecturus sum: Et in carne mea videbo Deum salvatorem meum. Quem visurus sum ego ipse, et non alius, et oculi mei conspecturi sunt. Et in carne mea videbo Deum salvatorem meum. The King, unto whom all things do live, come let us adore. (x2) Come let us rejoice unto our Lord, let us make joy to God our saviour: let us approach to his presence in confession, and in Psalms let us make joy unto him. The king, unto whom all things do live, come let us adore. Eternal rest give unto them O Lord: and let perpetual light shine unto them. Come let us adore. The King, unto whom all things do live, Come let us adore. I believe that my redeemer liveth, and that in the last day I shall rise from the earth: and in my flesh shall see God my saviour. Whom I myself shall see and not another, and mine eyes shall behold. And in my flesh I shall see God my saviour.
