Episode 53, “Christus Factus Est” (Palm Sunday) Chant: Introit, Palm Sunday PDF: https://editor.sourceandsummit.com/legacy/tmp/gregorio605cf1b3a2af87.28481290.pdf Text & Translation – Phillipians 2: 8-9 Latin: Christus factus est pro nobis obediens usque ad mortem, mortem autem crucis. Propter quod et Deus exaltavit illum et dedit illi nomen, quod est super omne nomen. English: Christ Christ became obedient for us unto death, even to the death, death on the cross. Therefore God exalted Him and gave Him a name which is above all names. Musical Musings - #chantnerdnotation: The Do moves down a ledger line halfway through the piece, because the range of notes goes uncommonly far outside the range reflected by the four lines on the chant staff. Resonant Reflections – Guest: Liz Owen, www.lizowenmusic.com Questions: 1) Are we observant of where God wants us? 2) Do we actively ask God for our deepest desires? 3) Are we obedient when the answer is no?
