About Panis Angelicus
This score brings together two deeply moving pieces that speak to different dimensions of faith—the profound mystery of the Eucharist and the personal comfort of walking with Christ. It opens with the classic Latin hymn "Panis Angelicus," a text that draws the choir and congregation into a space of quiet awe. Singing of the "bread of angels" becoming the bread of humanity, the harmonies invite us to reflect on the miraculous gift of the altar, where the Lord offers Himself to the poor and humble. It is a wonderful choice for Communion or moments of Benediction and Adoration, carrying a sense of reverence that settles over the sanctuary.
Following this is "Jesus For Me," a beloved strophic hymn that shifts the focus to a more personal, everyday trust in the Saviour. With its gentle, reassuring verses, it reminds us that through sickness and health, poverty and wealth, Christ remains our constant refuge. The simple, earnest chorus—"All the time, everywhere, Jesus for me"—is the kind of melody that stays with the congregation long after Mass has ended. Together, these pieces offer a choir the chance to lead the faithful from the solemn mystery of the Sacrament out into the world, anchored by the comforting presence of Jesus.
