Credo, Old Hall 77 by Leonel Power — 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, Old Hall 77
This Credo setting by Leonel Power is suitable for a High Mass setting, likely sung during the liturgical season of Ordinary Time. Composed for TTTBB voices, this substantial work sets the Nicene Creed in Latin, a foundational text of the Christian liturgy. Power's setting emphasizes the Dogmatic assertions of the creed, from the affirmation of a single God, Father Almighty, creator of all things, to the Incarnation, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The musical language reflects the solemnity and theological weight of the text, providing a rich and sonorous backdrop for these core statements of faith. The extended forces allow for a full and resonant choral sound.
