Beati immaculati in via by Sigismondo d'India — Lyrics
Alleluja. Aleph. Beati immaculati in via, qui ambulant in lege Domini.
Beati qui scrutantur testimonia ejus; in toto corde exquirunt eum.
Non enim qui operantur iniquitatem in viis ejus ambulaverunt.
Tu mandasti mandata tua custodiri nimis.
Utinam dirigantur viae meae ad custodiendas justificationes tuas.
Tunc non confundar, cum perspexero in omnibus mandatis tuis.
Confitebor tibi in directione cordis, in eo quod didici judicia
justitiae tuae.
Justificationes tuas custodiam; non me derelinquas usquequaque.
Beth. In quo corrigit adolescentior viam suam? in custodiendo sermones tuos.
In toto corde meo exquisivi te; ne repellas me a mandatis tuis.
In corde meo abscondi eloquia tua, ut non peccem tibi.
Benedictus es, Domine; doce me justificationes tuas.
In labiis meis pronuntiavi omnia judicia oris tui.
In via testimoniorum tuorum delectatus sum, sicut in omnibus divitiis.
In mandatis tuis exercebor, et considerabo vias tuas.
In justificationibus tuis meditabor: non obliviscar sermones tuos.
Ghimel. Retribue servo tuo, vivifica me, et custodiam sermones tuos.
Revela oculos meos, et considerabo mirabilia de lege tua.
Incola ego sum in terra: non abscondas a me mandata tua.
Concupivit anima mea desiderare justificationes tuas in omni tempore.
Increpasti superbos; maledicti qui declinant a mandatis tuis.

About Beati immaculati in via
Singing a motet like Sigismondo d'India's Beati immaculati in via offers a moment of profound reflection within a sacred service. This SATB setting in Latin draws from Psalm 118, its text a prayer for guidance and adherence to God's law. The music is a thoughtful response to the lyrical plea for righteous living, with the choir exploring the emotional contours of the words. D'India's skill in crafting expressive vocal lines is evident, creating a rich sound world for this devotional text, suitable for a choir seeking to imbue a service with depth and spiritual resonance.
