St. AUGUSTINE'S ANTHEM by DR. ANAELE ROMANUS F.C — Lyrics
About St. AUGUSTINE'S ANTHEM
"St. Augustine’s Anthem" is a gentle, through-composed choral setting of one of the Church’s most beloved prayers. Drawing directly from the saint's famous Confessions, the lyrics open with the profound realization that God is the source of all peace, and that our hearts remain restless until they find their rest in Him. It is a deeply reflective piece, perfect for a choir to sing during a patronal feast day celebration or as a meditative choral anthem after Communion.
Dr. Anaele Romanus F.C. wrote this piece specifically for the St. Augustine’s Choir of Blessed Tansi Parish in Owerri, dedicating it to them for their feast day. The music flows naturally with the text, moving from a quiet petition for God to reveal Himself, into a layered, earnest climax where the voices sing of seeking God in longing and finding Him in love. The anthem closes with a solemn, lingering "Amen," leaving the congregation in a space of quiet devotion.
