Ambrosian Hymn

Okay kiddo, so the ambrosian hymn is a special kind of song that people used to sing a long, long time ago in a special church called the "Ambrosian Rite."

Think of it like a really cool club that only certain people are allowed to go to. They have their own special dances, language, and even music!

The ambrosian hymn is one of the special songs that these people would sing during their church service. It's kind of like a prayer in the form of a song.

The words in the hymn are really special because they were written by a man named Ambrose who was a very important saint in the church. He wanted to make sure that people could understand and appreciate the words of the bible, so he wrote special songs like the ambrosian hymn to help them remember the words better.

So even though the ambrosian hymn may seem like just a regular song, it has a lot of meaning and history behind it that make it really special to the people who still sing it today!
