Creator alme siderum by Stanislav Surin — Lyrics
1. Creator alme siderum,
Aeterna lux credentium,
Jesu redemptor omnium,
Intende votis supplicum.
2. Qui daemonis ne fraudibus,
Periret orbis impetu,
Amoris actus languidi,
Mundi medelam factus est.
3. Commune qui mundi nefas,
Ut expiares ad crucem,
E virginis sacrario,
Intacta prodis victima.

About Creator alme siderum
This unison setting of the ancient Latin hymn Creator alme siderum by Stanislav Surin offers a powerful and direct musical interpretation of the text. The music is characterful and assured, with a noble melodic line that perfectly suits the profound words. The hymn addresses Jesus Christ as the creator of the stars, the eternal light of believers, and the redeemer of all, imploring him to heed the prayers of his supplicants. It recounts his divine mission, his sacrifice on the cross, and his ultimate triumph over death, celebrating his glorious power and majesty. The final verse offers a doxology to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
