[personal profile] lutheranhymns
The title is the English version of "Ubi caritas et amor," and this one also dates from the 9th century. This time it's the tenors who have a fairly repetitive part.

We also have the image of "holy fear"--a more common phrasing is "the fear of the Lord." Apparently it means something more like "standing in aw of the Lord, showing respect," but either nobody has found a better translation or they actually want the darker subtext.
