Adoro te devote by Francisco Alcantar — Lyrics
Latin|Spanish|
Adoro te devote latens Deitas
Quae sub his figuris vere latitas
Tibi se cor meum totum subjicit
Quia te contemplans totum deficit.
Oh que gran recordatorio de la muerte del Señor
Ven pan vivo llena mi alma, ven Dulcísimo sabor
Oh Jesús, a Quien ahora solo veo entre sombras
Pido cumplas mi deseo cara a cara ver tu gloria.
En la cruz se ocultaba solo la Divinidad

About Adoro te devote
This devotional anthem for two equal voices combines Latin and Spanish texts, offering a rich expression of faith. The music opens by focusing on the sonic interplay between the voices, setting a contemplative mood. The text reflects on the hidden presence of Christ in the Eucharist, a theme central to Eucharistic devotion. The composer, Francisco Alcantar, crafts a setting that draws the singers and listeners into a profound act of adoration, emphasizing belief and longing for divine connection. The dual-language approach allows for a broad accessibility, underscoring the universal nature of this sacred devotion.
