Credo - Chor, SATB solo- Chor, SATB solo- Chor, SATB solo
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 dexteram 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 Eccelsiam.
Confiteor unum baptisma in remissionem peccatorum,
et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum,
et vitam venturi saeculi. Amen.

Credo - Chor, SATB solo
I believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, light from light, true God from true God,
begotten, not made, of one being with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven.

He became incarnate from the Virgin Mary
by the power of the Holy Spirit, and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.

He rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father;
he will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
And I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of Life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son;
with the Father and the Son he is worshipped and glorified.
He has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church;
I acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins;
I look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

miserere nobis.

miserere nobis.
Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata mundi,
dona nobis pacem.

Agnus Dei - Chor, SATB solo
Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world,
have mercy on us.

have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world,
grant us peace.
