Grates tibi ergo dicimus

These Latin words express profound gratitude to God, the supreme parent, for his greatest gifts, particularly through his only Son who redeemed us. The text petitions for continued clemency, acknowledging Jesus as our Lord, King, salvation, and glory, who reigns eternally with God. It praises the eternal name of Jehovah, shared with the Holy Spirit, in inseparable unity throughout all ages and both worlds. This sacred hymn for treble voices (SST) is a prayer of thanks and adoration, seeking divine grace. The composer Adam Gumpelzhaimer sets this devotional text with simple, heartfelt devotion suitable for liturgical use.
