In dedicatione templi by Orlando di Lasso — Lyrics
In dedicatione templi decantabat populus laudem
et in ore eorum dulcis resonabat sonus.
Variant 1
Obtulerunt sacrificium super altare Domini,
Et ceciderunt in facies suas, et adoraverunt eum,
et in ore eorum dulcis resonabat sonus.
Variant 2
Alleluia. Haec est domus domini firmiter aedificata
De qua scriptum est: Domus mea, domus orationis vocabitur.

About In dedicatione templi
Orlando di Lasso's In dedicatione templi is a grand motet for double choir (SSATTB) in Latin, celebrating the dedication of a sacred temple. The text, drawn from scripture, speaks of the people singing praises with sweet sounds in their mouths as sacrifices are offered and they fall in adoration. It emphasizes the temple as a house of prayer founded on the mountains, to which all nations will come, with hymns and confessions blessing the Lord. This powerful and festive work is ideal for services or concerts commemorating a church's consecration or any occasion of solemn thanksgiving.
