One fond memory I have from the Seminary is the daily chapel services. In particular, I remember singing the Agnus Dei once a week during Lent. We sang it in Latin, usually in four parts. Very often the organist stopped playing so that the student body sings acapella.
The chapel services at the Seminary are now available by podcast. I downloaded a recent service in which they sang the Agnus Dei, and cropped it out for you.
Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, grant us peace. Amen.

Heavenly, truly.
Thank you for this.

Thank you for this.
Ditto what Pr. McCain said.
I like how the singers didn’t force their voices to sing it, too. Nice and simple.
Thank you. It was just what I needed to have in my mind, with the day I’ve had.
Thank you. I wish we could have done this at my LC-MS seminary.
Beautiful.
I’ve often said WELS pastors have we LC-MS pastors over a barrel with the languages. This proves me true.
Any chance I can get the file from you? I can’t seem to pull it off the page.
