Agnus Dei - Catholic Latin Hymn

Agnus Dei, which means “Lamb of God,” is said during the Mass when the Host is broken. It comes from a Syrian custom and was first used in the Roman Rite Mass by Pope Sergius I (687–701). The fifth item in the Mass, Agnus Dei comes from John 1:29 and is often used during communion. Along with the Kyrie, Credo, Gloria, and Sanctus, this chant remains an integral part of the Mass. Latin: Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem. English: Lamb of God, you who take away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Lamb of God, you who take away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Lamb of God, you who take away the sins of the world, grant us peace.
