According to the musicologist Willi Apel, the Kyrie Eleison (Greek for "Lord, have mercy) was introduced into the Gallican Rite Mass (now defunct for centuries) at the Council of Vaison in the AD 529, in a statement which implies that it had been introduced sometime before into the Roman Mass. Pope Gregory the Great then added the Christe Eleison sometime during his pontificate, between AD 590 and 604. With each invocation being sung three times (in the EF), this is one of the greatest Trinitarian pleas for mercy.
Lord, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. Lord, have mercy.
