The Basilian Monastery of the Mother of God (Theotokos) was founded by St Nilus the Younger in the town of Grottaferrata, 20 km south of Rome, in 1004. It was a Byzantine Rite abbey following the Rule of St Basil and was (uncommonly) under the See of Rome and remained so after the Great Schism. Two of its abbots, St Nilus the Younger and St Bartholomew the Younger, are saints of both the Latin and the Greek Church as they both died before the schism. In later years one of its most illustrious abbots in commendam was Cardinal Bessarion, himself a Basilian monk.
From the day of its foundation to modern times the Monastery has remained in Byzantine rite, despite being so near to Rome and despite the uniformity of rite imposed by several councils - most notably the Council of Trent. Moreover, due to the loss of contact with the rest of the East and the Basilian Order (which in its vast majority remained Orthodox), the Abbey uses the Byzantine chant as delivered at the date of its foundation, unaffected by later changes that occurred in the east.

The lyrics of this piece are the second part of the 10th passage from Psalm 142
Jesus said "I and the Father are One. He also prayed "that they may be one I in Thee and Thou in me that they (the church) may be one in US.

Why did Cappella Romana sing? Aren't there recordings of the actual monks in Grotaaferrata?

By a coincidence, I am looking at a transcription now: on p. 97 of Bissera Pentcheva's wonderful book on Hagia Sophia (PA State Univ. Press, 2017). You may likely need to get it from your interlibrary loan office at your public library. You can also see the info on the book on Google Books, but currently with no preview:

Every church prides itself in being closest to Jesus. Presumptuousness does not help us spiritually either.
Thankfully the Catholic Church has the privilege of being His!
Jesus said that only those who deny Him as the only begotten of the FATHER are condemed because they Blaspheme against the HOLY SPIRIT
