Credo in G by Ferdinand Schaller — Lyrics
Credo in unum Deum.
Patrem omnipotentem,
factorem caeli et terrae,
visibilium omnium et invisibilium.
Et in unum Dominum
Jesum Christum,
Filium Dei unigenitum,
Et ex Patre natum ante omnia saecula.
Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine,
Deum verum de Deo vero.
Genitum, non factum,
consubstantialem Patri:
per quem omnia facta sunt.
Qui propter nos homines
et propter nostram salutem
descendit de caelis.
Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto
ex Maria Virgine:
Et homo factus est.
Crucifixus etiam pro nobis sub Pontio Pilato:
passus, et sepultus est.

About Credo in G
The Credo in G by Ferdinand Schaller sets the Nicene Creed, a central declaration of Christian faith. The text proclaims belief in one God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only-begotten Son. It traces Christ's descent from heaven, his incarnation by the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, his crucifixion, death, and burial. The setting continues with his resurrection on the third day and ascension into heaven, culminating in his future return in glory to judge the living and the dead. This SATB setting in Latin captures the profound theological statements of the Creed, offering a substantial setting for a choir.
