Gloria by Mariano Garau — Lyrics
Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Et in terra pax hominibus bonae voluntatis.
Laudamus te. Benedicimus te.
Adoramus te. Glorificamus te.
Gratias agimus tibi propter magnam gloriam tuam.
Domine Deus, Rex caelestis, Deus Pater omnipotens.
Domine Fili unigenite, Iesu Christe.
Domine Deus, Agnus Dei, Filius Patris.

About Gloria
The Gloria is a vital part of the Mass, sung in praise and adoration of God. Mariano Garau’s setting for SATB choir captures the reverence and awe inherent in this ancient Latin text. The music likely unfolds the text’s unfolding glory, from the initial announcement of peace on earth and goodwill to the soaring acclamations of "Laudamus te" and "Glorificamus te". The composer's craft would surely mirror the profound theological statements, culminating in the ultimate declaration of God's unique holiness and majesty.
