Exultet coelum II by André Vierendeels — Lyrics
1. Exultet coelum laudibus
resultet terra gaudiis
apostolorum gloriam
sacra canunt solemnia.
2. Vos saecli justi judices
et vera mundi lumina
votis precamur cordium
audite preces supplicum.
3. Qui caelum verbo clauditis
serasque ejus solvitis
nos a peccatis omnibus
solvite jussu, quaesumus.
4. Quorum praecepto subditor
salus et languor omnium:
sanate aegros moribus

About Exultet coelum II
This jubilant setting of the hymn Exultet coelum laudibus is ideal for feast days celebrating apostles. The text petitions these saints for intercession, asking them to open the gates of heaven and absolve us from sin. It culminates in a doxology praising God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. André Vierendeels has crafted a powerful arrangement for TTBB choir, sung in Latin. The music should match the text's fervent pleas and exultant praise, making it a striking addition to a liturgical service or concert programme.
