LISTEN to the Beautiful Acappella "In Nomine Jesu" Hymn from 1586 Sung in an Empty Church Honoring the Holy Name of Jesus!

 

The month of January is dedicated to the Holy Name of Jesus. This beautiful hymn called "In nomine Jesu" is based on a bible verse. This  version in Latin was composed by Jacob Handl in 1586. The biblical source of the text is Philippians 2: 10-11. This is a sacred, a cappella Motet for the feast of the Holy Name of Jesus sung in an empty church. 
Latin Lyrics: In nomine Jesu omne genuflectatur: coelestium, terrestrium et infernorum et omnis lingua confiteatur quia Dominus Jesus Christus in gloria est Dei Patris. Alleluia. 
English translation: In the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth 11 and every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father. Alleluia.
