Taizé - Laudate omnes gentes

Taizé song nr 23, 2008

Recorded during my visit to Taizé in the summer of 2008.

Lyrics in latin with swedish and english translation:

Laudate omnes gentes, laudate Dominum.
Laudate omnes gentes, laudate Dominum.

Sjung lovsång, alla länder, och prisa Herrens namn!
Sjung lovsång, alla länder och prisa Herrens namn

Sing praises, all you peoples, sing praises to the Lord
Sing praises, all you peoples, sing praises to the Lord

Does anyone know which language this chant is sung in? It's latin, isnt it?

[antonwireen]

@mystyy It's latin, but it isn't so unusual to sing it in other languages, as swedish, which is the most popular of them, after latin. German is also a casual.

[antonwireen]

Laudate Omnes Gentes, Laudate Dominum!

Sing praises all you peoples, sing praises to the lord

Sjung lonsång alla länder, och prisa herrens namn!

Lobsingt, ihr Völker alle, lobsingt und preist den Herrn

[wwfewcwtnaecw]

@mystyy Yes.

[ItsChrissymissy]

Ich liebe dieses Lied... <3

[Jempan]

Yes it´s in Latin. But in the song book with all of the Taizé songs in it you can find it in english too.

I Miss taizé.

@mystyy but of course !

When I was in Taize there were no musical instruments, just voice. The purity of voice can be startled with such, it removes the essence of what the Taize chants truly are, pure expression of heart, spirit and soul. Instruments are alright for praise, though they taint the authentic Taize hall of praise. I hope no-one is too offended by my view; if there be, I can only apologize for that and to those who are.

Peace in Christ Jesus.
