As promised...The tune sounds quite familiar, but I just can't 'imagine' where I've heard it before.
Across Universae Ecclesiae
Prayers rise from the Faithful
Like the incense rises from the Altar
As is written
All Across
Universae Ecclesiae
Contrite hearts and consolation
Together Ad Orientem
The Choir sings the Kyrie
Eleison
Oh
Mass alone can change the World
So save the liturgy and save the World
The Mass alone can change the World
So save the liturgy and save the World
Tender mercy invites us
To wonder at His Majesty
The Love that's written
All Across
Universae Ecclesiae
Priest mediates for the Faithful
Stands in persona Christi
The Choir sings the Gloria
In excelsis Deo
Oh
Mass alone can change the World
So save the liturgy and save the World
The Mass alone can change the World
So save the liturgy and save the World
Priest announces Verbum Domini
Thurifer, torches and MC
Is written all across
Universae Ecclesiae
Acolytes and Priest you see they genuflect upon the knee
The Gospel Acclamation peels
Allelulia
Oh
Mass alone can change the World
So save the liturgy and save the World
The Mass alone can change the World
So save the liturgy and save the World
Recollect the Lord of Lords will condescend
Disguised as bread and wine
Upon the Altar
All Across
Universae Ecclesiae
Priest utters Ineffable and holy words of Consecration
The Sacrifice of Calvary
Agnus dei qui tollis
Oh
Tollis peccata mundi
Tollis peccata mundi
Tollis peccata mundi
'Oh good there's no Sign of Peace'
Deo gratias
Deo gratias
Deo gratias
Deo gratias
Deo gratias
Deo gratias
And remember. NOBODY is bigger than Jesus! Meanwhile, I found this comment on Rorate amusing...
That's the price of fame in the traditional Catholic World's new media. They build you up only to knock you down. I'm getting an injunction out on this Beryl character!

Sorry, but when I tried to play this song on Fr Blake's website I could not understand a word because of the bad enunciation of the singer. Inaudible! I thought it was rot. Having read the words via Rorate Caeli's link I wish they had not been set to 'music' but left as they were. The appearance of the singer also irritated me.
