Dogma datur by Francisco Valls — Lyrics
1. Lauda Sion Salvatorem,
Lauda ducem et pastorem
In hymnis et canticis.
Quantum potes, tantum aude,
Quia maior omni laude,
Nec laudare sufficis.
2. Laudis thema specialis
Panis vivus et vitalis
Hodie proponitur.
Quem in sacrae mensa coenae
Turbae fratrum duodenae
Datum non ambigitur.
3. Sit laus plena, sit sonora;
Sit iucunda, sit decora
Mentis iubilatio,
Dies enim solemnis agitur
In qua mensae prima recolitur
Huius institutio.
4. In hac mensa novi Regis
Novum Pascha novae legis
Phase vetus terminat.

About Dogma datur
Francisco Valls's motet Dogma datur is a setting of a text from the Lauda Sion sequence, traditionally sung at Mass on Corpus Christi. The Latin lyrics reflect on the Eucharist, praising the 'living and life-giving bread' offered to the faithful and commemorating Christ's Last Supper. Valls sets this profound theological text for AT.SATB choir, exploring the solemnity and joy of the feast. The music moves through the unfolding theological concepts of the text, from praise to remembrance, offering a rich and devotional setting of this significant liturgical text.
