In paradisum by P. Eppink — Lyrics
About In paradisum
P. Eppink's In paradisum is a sacred motet for SATB choir, sung in Latin. The text is a prayer for the departed soul, invoking angels and martyrs to guide them into paradise and the holy city of Jerusalem. It speaks of eternal rest, mentioning Lazarus from the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. The composer crafts a moving setting that reflects the solemnity and hope inherent in the text, making it suitable for moments of reflection and remembrance.
