En obsequios rendidos by José de Torres — Lyrics
Tutti
En obsequios rendidos, cante el afecto, el mayor atributo del sacramento, porque unidos, el cielo y la tierra, al mistico aplauso, al celebre obsequio. Armonías y acentos expliquen en tanto festejo, el mayor atributo del sacramento.

Tutti
El mayor atributo del sacramento, al mistico aplauso, al celebre obsequio. En obsequios rendidos cante el afecto, es piedra y es zarza, es leon y es cordero.

About En obsequios rendidos
José de Torres' En obsequios rendidos is a sacred work for SSAT choir, sung in Spanish. This villancico celebrates the sacrament through evocative imagery. The text opens by declaring the sacrament as the greatest attribute, uniting heaven and earth in joyful homage. Various voices then introduce symbolic representations: stone, burning bush, lion, and lamb, all contributing to the central theme of veneration. The verses further elaborate on these symbols, drawing parallels to biblical narratives, such as Moses striking the stone for water in the desert. The music likely reflects the devotional and festive nature of the text, intended to express deep affection and praise for the sacrament.
