Orbis Factor | Epic Hymn to the Maker of the World

Link to the MusicAn epic hymn to the Maker of the World, this is from the Sarum Rite, which developed in Salisbury Cathedral in the 11th century. This hymn is also the origin of Mass XI, Missa Orbis Factor, which we learned way back in episode 28. 1. Maker of the world, King eternal, have mercy upon us.2. O immense source of pity, have mercy upon us.3. Drive off all our evils, have mercy upon us.4. Christ who art the light of the world and giver of life, have mercy upon us.5. Consider the wounds produced by the devil's art, have mercy upon us.6. Keeping and confirming thy believers, have mercy upon us.7. Thou and thy Father, an equal light, have mercy upon us.8. We know that God is one and three, have mercy upon us.9. Thou, merciful unto us, art present with the Holy Spirit that we might live in thee, have mercy upon us.1. Orbis factor rex aeterne, eleison2.
