The hymn Gloria, laus, et honor<\/em>, composed by Theodulf of Orleans (d. 821), sung during the Palm Sunday procession, is one of the most beautiful pieces of Latin church hymnography:<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Gloria, laus et honor tibi sit,
\nRex Christe, Redemptor:
\nCui puerile decus
\nprompsit Hosanna pium.<\/p>\n

Israel es tu Rex,
\nDavidis et inclyta proles:
\nNomine qui in Domini,
\nRex benedicte, venis.
\nR.\u00a0Gloria, laus, etc.<\/p>\n

Coetus in excelsis te laudat
\ncaelicus omnis,
\nEt mortalis homo,
\net cuncta creata simul.
\nR.\u00a0Gloria, laus, etc.<\/p>\n

Plebs Hebraea
\ntibi cum palmis obvia venit:
\nCum prece, voto, hymnis,
\nadsumus ecce tibi.
\nR.\u00a0Gloria, laus, etc.<\/p>\n

Hi tibi passuro solvebant
\nmunia laudis:
\nNos tibi regnanti
\npangimus ecce melos.
\nR.\u00a0Gloria, laus, etc.<\/p>\n

Hi placuere tibi,
\nplaceat devotio nostra:
\nRex bone, Rex clemens,
\ncui bona cuncta placent.
\nR.\u00a0Gloria, laus, etc.<\/p>\n

From the Roman Missal. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n

All\u00a0glory, praise, and honor
\nto Thee, Redeemer, King,
\nto whom the lips of children
\nmade sweet Hosannas ring.<\/p>\n

Thou art the King of Israel,
\nThou David’s royal Son,
\nWho in the Lord’s Name comest,
\nthe King and blessed One.
\nR.\u00a0All glory, etc.<\/p>\n

The company of Angels
\nare praislng Thee on high,
\nand mortal men and all things
\ncreated make reply.
\nAll glory, etc.<\/p>\n

The people of the Hebrews
\nwith palms before Thee went;
\nour pralse and prayer and anthems
\nbefore Thee we present.
\nR.\u00a0All glory, etc.<\/p>\n

To Thee before Thy Passion
\nthey sang their hymns of praise;
\nto Thee now high exalted
\nour melody we raise.
\nR.\u00a0All glory, etc.<\/p>\n

Thou didst accept their praises,
\naccept the prayers we bring,
\nWho in all good delightest,
\nThou good and gracious King.
\nR.\u00a0All glory, etc.<\/p>\n
