Bob McGrath, now of Sesame Street, then of Sing Along with Mitch, sings Panis Angelicus from the album Mitch Miller Presents Bob McGrath, released in Japan with the title My Name Is Bob. Mitch Miller writes in the liner notes that "It was the public who told us, in thousands of intelligent, admiring fan letters, that Bob McGrath has a stars ability to make a single performance of a song truly unforgettable." Panis Angelicus is one of the songs included on the album in response to those letters.
The Latin text is part of the liturgy Saint Thomas Aquinas wrote for the feast of Corpus Christi. With music by César Frank, Panis Angelicus has become a popular tenor piece.
Panis angelicus
fit panis hominum;
Dat panis coelicus
figuris terminum:
O res mirabilis!
Manducat Dominum.
Pauper, servus et humilis.
Te trina Deitas
unaque poscimus:
Sic nos tu visita,
sicut te colimus;
Per tuas semitas
duc nos quo tendimus,
Ad lucem quam inhabitas.
Amen.
