Credo, Apt 42 by Jacobus Murrin — Lyrics
Credo in unum Deum.
Patrem omnipotentem,
factorem caeli et terrae,
visibilium omnium et invisibilium.
Et in unum Dominum
Jesum Christum,
Filium Dei unigenitum,
Et ex Patre natum ante omnia saecula.
Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine,
Deum verum de Deo vero.
Genitum, non factum,
consubstantialem Patri:
per quem omnia facta sunt.
Qui propter nos homines
et propter nostram salutem
descendit de caelis.
Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto
ex Maria Virgine:
Et homo factus est.
Crucifixus etiam pro nobis sub Pontio Pilato:
passus, et sepultus est.

About Credo, Apt 42
This setting of the Credo from the Mass Ordinary is for TBB choir. Sung during the Eucharist, the Credo is the central declaration of Christian belief. Jacobus Murrin sets the Nicene Creed in Latin, from the opening "I believe in one God" through to the affirmation of the Incarnation, Crucifixion, Resurrection, and Ascension. The text declares the divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ, his suffering and death for mankind, and his future return in glory. This is a substantial setting of a core liturgical text, suitable for services where a strong affirmation of faith is required.
