Asperges Me (Latin & English)

Greetings listeners of the Latin Prayer Podcast - today we will learn the Asperges Me - a prayer that I discovered first 7 years ago in a small prayer manual that I inherited and would say to myself whenever I left or entered my home and blessed myself with Holy Water from the little fount at our door. A few years later I discovered that this prayer is the great Antiphon that precedes the celebrating of a Traditional High Mass and it is glorious to behold. Still I take simple joy in praying it silently whenever I bless myself with Holy Water.

Asperges me, Domine, hyssopo et mundabor, Lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor. Miserere mei, Deus, secundum magnam misericordiam tuam.

Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow. Have mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy.
