Corpus Christi Watershed

Jesus said to them: “I have come into this world so that a sentence may fall upon it, that those who are blind should see, and those who see should become blind. If you were blind, you would not be guilty. It is because you protest, ‘We can see clearly,’ that you cannot be rid of your guilt.”

“Ubi Caritas” • Knox Translation (1950s)

·

It seems the gems of the SAINT EDMUND CAMPION MISSAL Third Edition can never be exhausted. In 1952, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen declared the Bible translation by Monsignor Ronald Knox as “the best” (his words). I took the elegant & rhyming translation created by Monsignor Knox for “Ubi Cáritas”—courtesy of the CAMPION MISSAL—and placed it next to the musical notes.
