Jesu Redemptor omnium by Mariano Garau — Lyrics
1. Jesu, Redémptor ómnium,
Quem lucis ante originem,
Parem patérnæ glóriæ
Pater suprémus édidit.
2. Tu lumen, et splendor Patris,
Tu spes perénnis ómnium,
Inténde quas fundunt preces
Tui per orbem sérvuli.
3. Meménto, rerum Cónditor,
Nostri quod olim córporis,
Sacráta ab alvo Vírginis
Nascéndo, formam súmpseris.
4. Testátur hoc praesens dies,
Currens per anni circulum,
Quod solus e sinu Patris

About Jesu Redemptor omnium
This setting of the Latin hymn Jesu Redemptor omnium explores the dual nature of Christ, divine and human. The text celebrates Jesus as the Redeemer, born of a Virgin, the light and splendor of the Father, and the eternal hope of all. It recounts his divine origin, his assumption of human form, and his role as the world's salvation, acknowledged by all creation. The choir, SATB, is invited to offer praise for this miraculous birth. The hymn's verses express profound theological concepts and a deep sense of gratitude for the Incarnation. It is a powerful declaration of faith, suitable for the Christmas season or any occasion celebrating the birth of Christ.
