Well, no one has requested a hymn for today, so I had to go out and find one.

By Request, ‘Gloria in Excelsis Deo’
One of the most gorgeous pieces of music I know, sometimes I post it when it’s nowhere near Christmas: requested by Joshua, sung by the Libera boys’ choir, Gloria in Excelsis Deo, by Camille Saint-Saens. You don’t mind that the lyrics are in Latin, do you?

Encore: ‘Gloria in Excelsis Deo’
I usually play this hymn around Christmas time, but really, it’s good for anytime–Gloria in Excelsis Deo by Saint-Saens, sung by the Libera boys’ choir. You can almost understand the Latin lyrics, if you just relax and listen.

‘Gloria,’ One More Time
I usually save this hymn for Christmas-time, but something made me want it for today. Gloria in Excelsis Deo, “Glory to God in the highest,” sung by the boys’ choir, Libera: music by Saint-Saens. The words are in Latin, but if you listen, you can probably understand more than you might have expected.
Libera: ‘Gloria in Excelsis Deo’
No one has requested a hymn today, so I’ll dip into my own internal hymnal and fish out a favorite: Gloria in Excelsis Deo (“Glory to God in the Highest”), sung by the Libera boys’ choir. I like this video because it displays the Latin lyrics–which, if you put your mind to it, you’ll probably be able to understand.

They’ve still got the creche up, across the street at St. Francis’, so why not? Gloria in Excelsis Deo, composed by Saint-Saens, sung by the Libera Boys Choir–yeah, let’s turn it up. Let’s revel in it. “Glory to the most high God!”
Do you find you can understand the Latin lyrics when they’re displayed along with the music? I find it so. And I never studied Latin.

Lord, grant this Christmas season of 2017 great power to draw all hearts to Jesus Christ, our rightful King and Savior: amen.
