IF YE LOVE ME

If Ye Love Me is a four-part motet or anthem by the English composer Thomas Tallis, a setting of a passage from the Gospel of John . First published in 1565 during the reign of Elizabeth I, it is an example of Tudor music and is part of the repertoire of Anglican church music. An early English-language motet, it is frequently performed today, and has been sung at special occasions including a papal visit and a royal wedding. The text is taken from William Tyndale's translation of the Bible which was in common use in the Church of England during the English Reformation. It uses verses from the Gospel of John, words spoken by Jesus to his disciples foretelling his own death and promising that God the Father will send to them the Holy Spirit. The anthem was chosen to be sung when Pope Benedict XVI attended Evensong at Westminster Abbey during his 2010 visit to the United Kingdom and also at the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle in 2018.
