Gratias agimus tibi by Francisco Valls — 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 Gratias agimus tibi
This setting of the Gloria text from the Mass Ordinary is by Francisco Valls. Sung as a solo for soprano voice, it is a moving reflection on the divine glory and the role of Christ as Lamb of God. The text, sung in Latin, moves through praise and adoration to supplication, as the soprano voice invokes the King of Heaven and the unique holiness of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Valls's music elevates the sacred words, offering a profound expression suitable for a church setting where such solemn texts are customarily heard.
