The other two hymns written by Aquinas for the Feast contain the famous sections Panis angelicus and Tantum ergo.

Thixo, Nkosi enye-ntathu Lonk’ Uzuko lube kuwe, Siph’ ubom obungapheliyo Ekhayeni lethu Bawo.

Spanish composer Arriaga wrote a motet on the hymn for two tenors, bass and strings in 1823.

Gioachino Rossini composed two settings of the hymn: one as a standalone piece for chorus and the other as a movement for solo soprano in his Petite messe solennelle.

The first stanza is also inserted as part of the Sanctus of Robert Schumann's Mass in C minor, Op.
