Confirmatum est cor Virginis by Antonio Cifra — Lyrics
Confirmatum est cor Virginis,
in quo divina mysteria,
Angelo nunciante, concepit,
Tunc speciosum forma
prae filiis hominum;
castis suscepit visceribus,
Et benedicta in aeternum
Deum nobis protulit et hominem.

About Confirmatum est cor Virginis
The text expresses the miracle of the Virgin's conception, her heart made firm and strong by divine mystery. She conceives by the angel's announcement, and the beauty of her purity shines forth. Her chaste body becomes a temple of God, and through God's word, she conceives her Son, bringing forth both God and man. Antonio Cifra sets this devotional text for double choir (SATB.SATB) in Latin, creating a rich and resonant sound world for this sacred motet. The grandeur of the double choir is well suited to the unfolding of the Marian mystery, celebrating her blessedness and her eternal role.
