One of the most renowned Gregorian Chant melodies is "Dies Irae." It was traditionally credited to Thomas of Celano (who passed away in 1260), but is now typically attributed to an anonymous Franciscan from the same era. This piece is inspired by Zephaniah 1:14-16 and reflects on the concept of the final judgment. It used to be a part of the Mass of the Dead and the Office of the Dead. Today, it is included in the Liturgia Horarum during the last week of Ordinary time (34th week), emphasizing the approaching Advent season and the Second Coming of Christ. In the United States, it continues to be used in the Office of the Dead and on the Feast of All Souls (November 2nd).

Some people have expressed discomfort with the somber tone of the initial verses of the hymn, but despite its sobering nature, there is a sense of hope later in the composition. The idea of eternal judgment can be intimidating for us as sinners, but as Christians, we find solace in the knowledge that we have Christ as our Savior.
