R EQUIEM BY G ABRIEL F AURÉ (1845 — 1924)
Baritone soloist: Alexander Dobson
INTROITUS & KYRIE Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis. Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion, et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem.
Rest eternal grant them, O Lord, and may light perpetual shine on them. A hymn is fitting for you, God, in Zion, and a vow will be paid to you in Jerusalem. Hear my prayer; to you all flesh will come.
Exaudi orationem meam; ad te omnis caro veniet.
Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy.
Kyrie eleison. Christe eleison. Kyrie eleison.
OFFERTORIUM O Domine Jesu Christe, Rex gloriae, libera animas defunctorum de poenis inferni, et de profundo lacu. Libera eas de ore leonis, ne absorbeat eas tartarus, ne cadant in obscurum. Hostias et preces tibi, Domine, laudis offerimus. Tu suscipe pro animabus illis quarum hodie memoriam facimus. Fac eas, Domine, de morte transire ad vitam, quam olim Abrahae promisisti, et semini eius. Amen.
O Lord Jesus Christ, King of glory, free the souls of the dead
from the pains of hell, and from the deep pit, from the mouth of the lion,
nor may the abyss swallow them, nor may they fall into darkness. Sacrifices and prayers to you, Lord, we offer: Receive those souls whom today we remember. Make them, Lord, to pass from death to life, which once you promised to Abraham and to his seed. Amen.
SANCTUS Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus, Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Pleni sunt coeli et terra Gloria tua. Hosanna in excelsis.
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts. Full are the heavens and the earth with your glory. Hosanna in the highest.
