Gaudent in Coelis
Two-Part Treble Choir and Organ. Great for Children's Choirs as well. A delightful piece for All Saints Day or All Saints Sunday. Moderately easy with a singable English translation.
Latin:
Gaudent in coelis animae Sanctorum,
qui Christi vestigia sunt secuti;
et quia pro ejus amore sanguinem suum fuderunt,
ideo cum Christo exsultant sine fine.
Translation:
The souls of the saints rejoice in heaven,
they who have followed in the footsteps of Christ;
and because they shed their blood for love of Him,
They rejoice with Christ without end.
English Version:
Rejoice in heav'n, ye saints who have gone before,
followed in the footsteps of Christ, our Savior;
and shared the Love of Jesus,
martyrs and the host of heaven,
now rejoice in Christ the Lord forever.
