Translation of The Responsory “Media Vita”,
sung by The Benedictine Monks of Silverstream Priory,
County Meath, Ireland:
“In the midst of life, we are in death;
from whom shall we seek help, save Thee, O Lord ?
Who, for our sins, art justly angered.
* Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Merciful Saviour,
do not hand us over to the bitterness of death.
(Verse 1):
In Thee, our fathers hoped;
they hoped, and Thou hast liberated them.
* Holy God . . .
(Verse 2):
To Thee, our fathers cried;
they cried, and were not confounded.
*Holy God . . .
Gloria Patri . . .
* Holy God . . .

The Schola of Silverstream Priory recorded the poignant Responsory “Media vita in morte sumus”, trusting that it will, in some way, bring comfort and hope to those who listen to it, while looking at the images that accompany
The Gregorian Chant.
