Honor, Deus, omnis tuus by Adam Gumpelzhaimer — Lyrics
Honor, Deus, omnis tuus, tu usque sermo ditat,
solus tua, das dextera, ut res creata vivat.
Unus locat, alter rigat, ut ergo fixa fugant,
a te viror, ut et vigor, omnis necesse vergant.

About Honor, Deus, omnis tuus
Adam Gumpelzhaimer was a German composer of sacred music in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This setting of Honor, Deus, omnis tuus is for three voices (SST) and is sung in Latin. The text is a hymn of praise to God, thanking Him for creation and sustenance. It prays for God's continued grace and blessings, and asks that His name be glorified through His Son, who nourishes humanity. The music would have been conceived for devotional or liturgical use, reflecting the sacred repertoire of its time.
