May the Angels Lead You into Paradise

Words: Catholic Liturgy for Requiem Mass
Music: Robert Loretz
Modal (dorian), reverent, solemn, simple and hauntingly beautiful, this hymn is perfect as a recessional at a funeral, as the coffin is taken out. In such a moment, one can almost see the angels and saints coming to greet the soul of the faithful departed. So many people have approached me after I. have sung this at a funeral and said that they want that very song at their own funeral.

Chorus:
May the angels lead you into Paradise, May the martyrs come forth to greet you,
May they lead you to the Holy City, the new and eternal Jerusalem.
