I believe an ideal monastic office would do all it can to include the ancient hymns handed down over the centuries, and to use them either in their original Latin or in faithful translations.ДЄn argument might also be made for retaining the traditional Gregorian chant melodies as well, which change throughout the year according to the liturgical season, thus calling to mind immediately what time of year or day it is by the tunes being sung at the Divine Office.Pope Francis announced on 2022.05.29 that he would elevate the following 20 prelates to the Sacred College of Cardinals in a consistory on 2022.08.27.

It is a great loss to replace these rich and venerable hymn texts assigned to the Opus Dei with mediocre modern compositions of lesser value and depth. They help us to enter more fully into the season we are celebrating in the Liturgical Year, be it Advent, Christmas, Ordinary Time, Lent, or Paschaltide and to focus our attention on ChristвЂ™s redemptive work on behalf of the human race. The LordвЂ™s resurrection and the cycle of night associated with sin and the light of day with redemption in Christ, вЂњthe Sun of Righteousness,вЂќ are also made manifest in the hymns. Those who use the ancient hymns of the traditional monastic office either in Latin or in vernacular translation, can experience, for example, the work of God creating all things, sung about at Vespers in Ordinary Time. Hence, the hymns are not divinely inspired like the scriptures, but nonetheless they have always had an important place in the Divine Office of the Catholic Church. The hymns are not scripture texts, but use scripture as their basis, so to speak, in order to weave thoughts that inspire us to reflect on GodвЂ™s goodness to humankind, revealed in both sacred scripture and tradition.
