[poem by Paul Bourget - English version see below]
Les feuilles s'ouvraient sur le bord des branches,
délicatement.
Les cloches tintaient, légères et franches,
dans le ciel clément.
Rhythmique et fervent comme une antienne,
ce lointain appel
me remémorait la blancheur chrétienne
des fleurs de l'autel.
Ces cloches parlaient d'heureuses années,
et, dans le grand bois,
semblaient reverdir les feuilles fanées,
des jours d'autrefois.
The leaves unfurled on branches so lightly delicate and soft.
The bells rang out so light and free in the cloudless sky
Rhythmical and fervent a distant call like the anthems of old
Called to mind the pure white lilies on holy altar's sacrifice
Those bells spoke to me of happier Times now gone
and in the great wood they seemed to revive
the faded leaves of days long since passed.

It is a meditation on the meaning of transubstantiation.
Hoc est enim corpus meum
Die Ewigkeit der Welt liegt hier in meiner Hand
Die schweren Schmerzen, Erlösung und Liebe sind ein Seufzer in meiner Hand
Christus mein! Herr der Ewigkeit in meiner Hand
tröstlich und klein in meiner Hand
Weiss und vertrauensvoll hier in meiner Hand
Bescheidenheit der Liebe leigt zärtlich hier.
In meiner Hand liegt Gott
[English original]
Hoc est enim corpus meum
The world's eternity lies here within my hand.
The weight of pain, of love, redemption is a sigh upon my hand,
My Christ, Lord of the infinite,
small to my comfort in my hand.
Humility of Love that tender here lies low.
White, trusting, full of care within my hand.
So, in my hand lies God.
Hoc est enim corpus meum. less

The whole Mass setting contains Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, Benedictus, Agnus Dei and also an organ voluntary based on the themes.
A version for 3 part mixed choir (Soprano, Alto and Men) and organ is also available at:
http://dwsolo.musicaneo.com/sheetmusic/sm-185192_mass_for_three_part_mixed_choir_and_organ.html
Because of its gently exotic modal flavours, the music was deemed to have a ring of "oriental promise" by one appreciative member of the congregation at the first performance.
This setting has been sung in Cathedrals in Manchester, Southwell and Dublin and the Agnus has also featured in services at Christ Church Didsbury.
The recording here is the Agnus Dei sung by the Voluntary Choir of Manchester Cathedral during their visit to Southwell Minster. less
