Christe Redemptor Omnium (9th century)
Title after 1631AD: “Placare Christe Servulis”
In addition to providing the Latin version with accent marks, the Saint Jean de Brébeuf Hymnal commissioned English translations from Latin scholars to help congregations appreciate these ancient prayers. Until the Brébeuf Hymnal appeared in 2018, literal translations for many of these hymns had never been made.
Do not confuse this hymn with “Jesu Redemptor Omnium” from the 6th century.
