Benedicite Dominum, MH 381 by Johann Michael Haydn — Lyrics
About Benedicite Dominum, MH 381
Sing praise to the Lord, all you his angels! The text, a psalm, calls for all creation to bless the Lord. It begins with a powerful invocation to the angels and mighty powers who obey God’s word, followed by a personal commitment from the psalmist to bless the Lord with all their being. Johann Michael Haydn sets this Latin text for SATB choir. This sacred work is a fine example of responsorial psalmody, suitable for services or concerts where a message of divine praise is desired.
