Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Et in terra pax hominibus bonae voluntatis.

Laudamus te; benedicimus te;
adoramus te; glorificamus te.

Gratias agimus tibi
propter magnam gloriam tuam.

Domine Deus, Rex coelestis,
Deus Pater omnipotens.
Domini Fili unigenite Jesu Christe:
Domine Deus, Agnus Dei, Filius Patris:

Qui tollis peccata mundi,
miserere nobis:
Qui tollis peccata mundi,
suscipe deprecationem nostram:

Qui sedes
ad dextram Patris,
miserere nobis:

Quoniam tu solus sanctus,
tu solus Dominus,
tu solus aldssimus, Jesu Christe:

Cum Sancto Spiritu
in gloria Dei Patris. Amen.

Credo
Credo in unum Deum;
Patrem omnipotentem,
factorem coeli et terrae,
visibilium omnium et invisibilium:
Et in unum Dominum Jesum Christum,
Filium Dei unigenitum,
et ex Patre natum ante omnia saecula:
Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine,
Deum verum de Deo vero,
genitum non factum,
consubstantialem Patri,
per quem omnia facta sunt:
Qui propter nos homines et propter
nostram salutem descendit de coelis:

Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto,
ex Maria virgine, et homo factus est.

Crucifixus etiam pro nobis
sub Pontio Pilato,
passus et sepultus est.

Et resurrexit tertia die,
secundum scripturas:
et ascendit in coelum.
Sedet ad dextram
Dei Patris.

Et iterum venturus est cum gloria
judicare vivos et mortuos,
cujus regni non erit finis.

Et in Spiritum Sanctum Dominum
et vivificantem,
qui ex Patre Filioque procedit;
Qui cum Patre et Filio simul
adoratur et conglorificatur:
qui locutus est per prophetas.

Et unam sanctam
catholicam et apostolicam ecclesiam.
Confiteor unum baptisma
in remissionem peccatorum,
Et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum
et vitam venturi saeculi.
Amen.

Sanctus, sanctus, Dominus Deus Sabaoth.
Pleni sunt coeli et terra gloria tua.
Hosanna in excelsis.

English Translation


Lord have mercy.
Christ have mercy.
Lord have mercy.


Glory be to God in the highest.
And on earth peace to men of good will.

We praise Thee; we bless Thee;
we worship Thee; we glorify Thee.

We give thanks to Thee
for Thy great glory.

Lord God, Heavenly King,
God the Father almighty.
O Lord, the only begotten Son Jesus Christ:
Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father:

Thou that takest away the sins of the world,
have mercy upon us:
Thou that takest away the sins of the world,
receive our prayer:

Thou that sittest
at the right hand of the Father,
have mercy upon us:

For Thou only art holy,
Thou only are the Lord,
Thou only are the most high, Jesus Christ:

With the Holy Ghost
in the glory of God the Father. Amen.


I believe in one God;
The Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth,
and of all things seen and unseen:
And in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the only begotten Son of God,
begotten of the Father before all worlds:
God from God, Light from Light,
very God from very God,
begotten not made,
of one being with the Father,
by whom all things were made:
who for us men and for
our salvation descended from heaven:

And was incarnate by the Holy Ghost
of the virgin Mary, and was made man.

He was crucified also for us
under Ponhus Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried.

And on the third day he rose again,
according to the scriptures:
and ascended into heaven.
He sitteth at the right hand
of God the Father.

And he shall come again with glory
to judge the living and the dead,
whose kingdom shall have no end.

And in the Holy Ghost the Lord
and giver of life,
who proceedeth from the Father and the Son;
who with the Father and Son together
is worshipped and glorified:
who spake by the prophets.

And in one holy,
catholic and apostolic church.
I acknowledge one baptism
for the remission of sins,
And I await the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.


Holy, holy is the Lord God of Hosts.
Heaven and earth are full of His glory.
Hosanna in the highest.


Lamb of God,
who takest away the sins of the world,
have mercy upon us.


This piece was performed by the SFBC in Visions of Utopia: Perspectives of the “Golden Age” on May 22, 1999.
