Ave Maria!
Vergin del ciel sovrana di grazie e madre pia che accogli ognor la fervente preghiera, non negar a questo straziato mio cuor tregua al suo dolor!
Sperduta l'almamia si prosta a te e pien di speme si prosta ai tuoi piè, t'invoca e attende che tu le dia la pace che solo tu puoi donar
Ave Maria!
Ave Maria gratia plena Maria, gratia plena Maria, gratia plena Ave, ave dominus dominus tecum Benedicta tu in mulieribus Et benedictus Et benedictus fructus ventris tuae Tuae, Jesus
Ave Maria! Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring ( Josh Groban)Jesu, joy of man's desiring Holy wisdom, love most bright
Drawn by Thee, our souls aspiring Soar to uncreated light
Word of God, our flesh that fashioned With the fire of life impassioned
Striving still to truth unknown Soaring, dying round Thy throne O Holy Night ( Luciano-Pavorotti)The stars are brightly shining It is the night of our dear Savior's birth, Long lay the world in sin and error pining Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices For yonder breaks, a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees, oh hear the angel voices Oh night divine, oh night when Christ was born Oh night divine, oh night, oh night divine
Minuit,Chrétiens, c’est l’heure sonlennelle Oú l’homme Dieu descendit jusquá nous, Pour effacer la tache originelle, Et de son pére arréter le courroux. Le monde entier tressaille d’espérance A cette nuit qui tui donne un sauveur! Peuple á genoux! Attends ta délivrance! Noel! Noel! voici le Rédempteur! Noel! Noel! voici le Rédempteur! Huron Carol (Vienna Boys Choir)'Twas in the moon of wintertime when all the birds had fled That mighty Gitchi Manitou sent angel choirs instead; Before their light the stars grew dim and wondering hunters heard the hymn, Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.
Within a lodge of broken bark the tender babe was found; A ragged robe of rabbit skin enwrapped his beauty round But as the hunter braves drew nigh the angel song rang loud and high Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.
The earliest moon of wintertime is not so round and fair As was the ring of glory on the helpless infant there. The chiefs from far before him knelt with gifts of fox and beaver pelt. Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.
O children of the forest free, O seed of Manitou The holy Child of earth and heaven is born today for you. Come kneel before the radiant boy who brings you beauty peace and joy. Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.Gabriel's Message (Sting)The Angel Gabriel from heaven came His wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame "All hail" said he thou Holy Maiden Mary Most highly favoured lady Gloria (Most highly favoured lady Gloria)
For known a blessed mother thou shalt be All generations laud and honor thee Thy son shall be Emmanuel as seers foretold Most highly favoured lady Gloria (Most highly favoured lady Gloria)
The gentle Mary meekly bowed her head "To me, be as it pleaseth God" she said "My soul shall laud and magnify his holy name" Most highly favoured lady Gloria (Most highly favoured lady Gloria)
Of her Emmanuel, the Christ was born In Bethlehem all on a Christmas morn And everyone through out the world will ever say Most highly favoured lady Gloria (Most highly favoured lady Gloria)
