Hino da C.E.I. by F. Tavoni — Lyrics
Hino ardente soltemos, cruzados,
Ao divino eucarístico Rei:
É o Pão que aos pequenos soldados
Dá o Papa, dizendo: Vencei!
Nosso escudo é a prece aguerrida;
É a cruz do dever nossa espada;
São as almas o campo da lida;
Nosso prêmio e vitória: Jesus!

About Hino da C.E.I.
This is an ardent hymn in Portuguese, calling the faithful to the Eucharistic King, Jesus. The text speaks of divine strength derived from faith and prayer, likening the Christian life to a battle where devotion is the shield and duty the sword. It invokes Jesus' words to welcome children, urging Him to guide believers and non-believers alike. The composer F. Tavoni has set this text for unison voices, creating a powerful and direct message. Its style is that of a sacred hymn, suitable for congregational singing or a choir seeking a piece with a strong spiritual and devotional character.
