O Salutaris Hostia was composed in late summer 2019 as a companion piece to O Sacrum Convivium, which Dr. Andrews wrote for treble voices in the spring of 2019. The text of O Salutaris Hostia was written by St. Thomas Aquinas in the 13th century and is the last two stanzas of a larger hymn that St. Thomas wrote about Christ's institution of the Eucharist at the Last Supper. Traditionally, this text is sung during Eucharistic services.
It is my prayer that, as with O Sacrum Convivium, those who hear this work may find respite, grace, and peace in the midst of a troubled world.
