    Watching the Palm Sunday Mass at St. Peter's, I was struck with the beauty of the arrangements of Gloria, Laus et Honor (27:00) and Deus, Deus Meus (2:01:40). Are they old? Are they new? Were they written "in-house" or can they be found anywhere?

    Extra credit: Whatever is at 2:25:48 . WOW! All I can tell is that it is in Spanish. Also, how great is it to watch entire Masses without commentary over the music? Thanks, Vatican youtube channel. :)

    I found the text, but it's really in Italian:

    Beato te, Simone figlio di Giona, perché né la carne né il sangue te l'hanno rivelato, ma il Padre mio che sta nei cieli. E io ti dico: Tu sei Pietro e su questa pietra edificherò la mia chiesa e le porte degli inferi non prevarranno contro di essa.

    (Repeat:) Tu sei Pietro e su questa pietra edificherò la mia chiesa.

    (from Mt. 16:17-18)
