Congratulamini mihi omnes qui diligitis Dominum,
quia quem quaerebam apparuit mihi.
Et dum flerem ad monumentum, vidi Dominum meum.
Alleluia.

About Congratulamini mihi omnes
The words Congratulamini mihi omnes express joy at a longed-for appearance. The speaker recounts searching and finally seeing the Lord, weeping at the tomb. The text then shifts to the disciples departing, but the speaker remaining, burning with desire and love for Jesus. This sacred motet from the Renaissance, set in Latin for SAATB voices, captures the intense emotion of encountering the risen Christ and the ardent longing for divine presence. Alexander Utendal's setting offers a rich sonic landscape for this devotional text, creating a powerful devotional experience.
