Ubi caritas




Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Where good and love are, God is there.
Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor.
Christ's love has gathered us into one.
Exultemus, et in ipso iucundemur.
Let us rejoice and be pleased in Him.
(Timeamus, et amemus Deum vivum.
Let us fear, and let us love the living God.)
Et ex corde diligamus nos sincero.
And may we love each other with a sincere heart.

Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Where charity and love are, God is there.
Simul ergo cum in unum congregamur:
As we are gathered into one body,
Ne nos mente dividamur, caveamus.
Beware, lest we be divided in mind.
Cessent iurgia maligna, cessent lites.
Let evil impulses stop, let controversy cease,
Et in medio nostri sit Christus Deus.
And may Christ our God be in our midst.

Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Where charity and love are, God is there.
Simul quoque cum beatis videamus,
And may we with the saints also,
Glorianter vultum tuum, Christe Deus:
See Thy face in glory, O Christ our God:
Gaudium quod est immensum, atque probum,
The joy that is immense and good,
Saecula per infinita saeculorum. Amen
Unto the ages through infinite ages. Amen
