Name: Jesu Dulcis Amor Meus
Duration: P00H02M36S
Description: The text of this hymn was gleaned from scattered cantos of "Salve mundi Salvatore", a poem of greatly disputed attribution, most often to St. Bernard of Clairvaux, 1090-1153. First manuscript dates to the 14th century, so this attribution, too is suspect. Hymn ascribed by the Roman Breviary to Lauds of the feast of the Hold Shroud.

lyrics

1. Jesu, dulcis amor meus,
Ac si præsens sis, accedo:
Te complector cum affectu,
Tuorum memor Vulnerum.

2. O quam nudum hic te cerno,
Vulneratum, et distentum,
Inquinatum, involutum
In hoc sacrato tegmine!

3. Salve Caput cruentatum
Spinis, cuius dulcis vultus
Immutavit suum florem,
Quem cæli tremit Curia.

4. Salve Latus Salvatoris,
Salve mitis apertura,
Super rosam rubicunda,
Medela salutifera.

5. Manus sanctæ vos avete,
Diris Clavis perforatæ.
Ne repellas me, Salvator,
De tuis sanctis pedibus. Amen.
