Jerusalem gaude a 8 by Nicolaus Zangius — Lyrics
Jerusalem, gaude gaudio magno,
quia veniet tibi salvator.
Alleluia.
Dabo in Sion salutem,
et in Jerusalem gloriam meam.
Alleluia.
Montes et colles humiliabuntur
et erunt prava in directa

About Jerusalem gaude a 8
The text for Nicolaus Zangius’s Jerusalem gaude speaks of great joy for Jerusalem as a savior approaches, bringing glory. It calls for the leveling of mountains and hills, with rough places made plain in preparation for the Lord’s coming. The choir is invited to live justly and piously, awaiting this blessed hope and advent. This motet is set for a large eight-voice choir, divided into two SATB choirs. The Latin text is sacred, with repeated Alleluias underscoring the triumphant and expectant mood.
