 Various authors have termed it one of the finest jewels of Christian Latin hymnody, and the Breviary assigns it as the hymn for Evening Prayer from Passion (Palm) Sunday to Wednesday of Holy Week as well.

 Just as Holy Thursday is so great a feast with so much to celebrate that it gives rise to the additional solemnity of Corpus Christi, the same is true of Good Friday, there is too much to celebrate for the mystery of redemption wrought through Christ and his Cross to be confined to a single day. So, in a sense, today is a little Good Friday, the day when Christ’s sacrifice on the cross triumphs over the powers of hell, and the devil who had conquered by the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is himself conquered by the tree of the cross.
