Name: O Holy of Holies
Duration: P00H04M26S
Description: A setting of another 18th-century ‘O’ Antiphon - as a kind of postscript to O Wisdom of God (track 12) - which can been performed in a number of ways: in alternation with a plainchant or readings; interspersed among the pieces in a recital; in alternation with one of its polyphonic models, Sheppard’s Reges Tharsis; or, as here, simply on its own.

lyrics

O Holy of Holies,
spotless mirror of the majesty of God and image of His goodness:
Come Thou, that iniquity may be blotted out and eternal righteousness be brought in.
Come, Lord Jesu!

Come Thou, that iniquity may be blotted out and eternal righteousness be brought in.
Come, Lord Jesu!

And eternal righteousness be brought in.
Come, Lord Jesu!
