Thank you for sharing the additional verses and different translation. On which Mormon Tabernacle Choir CD could I listen to the Neale version? This is my very favorite hymn.

(Call me a heretic, but I love hearing the Tabernacle Choir sing a Latin text.) And that final movement "Let Peace Then Still the Strife" stirs my soul. I really enjoy the Wilberg Requiem.

It is a wonderful arrangement. What do you think of Wilberg's Requiem on the same disc? Meems, I hope you love the book the way I did! It's an academic study, of course, so it's not exactly a light read, but it is full of wonderful poems and insights and meaty history. Just wonderful.

(My internal organs are in serious need of rest from all the doughnuts and candy bars and etc. . .) I really do love the Neale translation. It seems even more intimate than the one in our hymnal. Incidentally, Mack Wilberg has set this (Neale) translation to an equally exquisite musical arrangement (published by Oxford, and recorded by the Tabernacle Choir). Thanks for this.
