Beati omnes by Anonymous — Lyrics
Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.
Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuae;
filii tui sicut novellae olivarum in circuitu mensae tuae.

About Beati omnes
For a solemn occasion, perhaps a feast day or a service of thanksgiving, this anonymous motet offers a profound blessing for those who live in reverence. Sung in Latin by a SATB choir, Beati omnes draws its text from Psalm 127, a psalm that vividly paints a picture of domestic felicity and divinely ordained prosperity. It speaks of the joys of honest labour, the fruitfulness of marriage, and the blessing of a thriving family, all under God’s watchful eye. The music would undoubtedly seek to convey a sense of peace and spiritual well-being, creating an atmosphere of grace and affirmation for the listener.
