Asperges Me
Asperges me, Domine,
hyssopo, et mundabor:
lavabis me,
et super nivem dealbabor.
Miserere mei, Deus,
secundum magnam misericordiam tuam.
V. Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto:
R. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper,
et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.
Asperges me, etc.
This is sung at every High Mass on Sunday, in the Tridentine Rite (which was used by the whole Western Church up to 1962). Today, many Traditional and Conservative groups still offer the Tridentine Mass, and so this beautiful antiphon is heard in various Churches throughout the year, except for Paschaltide (the Sundays after Easter).
This is found on the following CD(s):
