Gloria Dei Lyrics

Gloria Dei
lucet nobis
Gloria Dei
lucet nobis
(glory of God shines upon us)

tenebris marcescat
(the darkess fades away)

Ad mortem Jesus ducitur
mens haec considera !!!!
mitis agnellus trahitur
cruenta victima, pro me et te
pro malis mundi
pro malis mundi
propter amorem
(Jesus is led to death,
consider this,
a gentle little lamb is dragged like a bloody victim
for me and you
for the evils of the world
for the evils of the world
for the sake of love)

Gloria Dei
lucet nobis
Gloria Dei
lucet nobis
(glory of God shines upon us)

vide catenas
haec pro te patitur
inter dolores, inter cruores
en pro te moritur
(look at the chains,
this one suffers for you,
in His pains, in His bleeding,
He dies for You)


per dura devia errans ovicula:
revertere! revertere!
Maria vel sancti non possunt intercedere pro nobis
ad Dominum convertere
(sheep wandering through the harsh stray paths;
return back! return back)
Maria or the (dead) saints can't intercede for us,
turn to the Lord!)


te quarens, cadit lassus
redemit crucem passus
te quarens, cadit lassus
redemit crucem passus
redemit crucem passus
(He falls down tired, looking for you ,
He has redeemed you by suffering on the cross
He falls down tired, looking for you ,
He has redeemed you by suffering on the cross
He has redeemed you by suffering on the cross)
