Anna Lapwood, Cambridge, The Chapel Choir of Pembroke College and The Pembroke College Girls’ Choir - Gaudete

Gaudete! Gaudete! Christus est natus
Ex Maria Virgine, Gaudete

Tempus adest gratiae
Hoc quod optabamus
Carmina laetitiae
Devote reddamus

Deus homo factus est
Natura mirante
Mundus renovatus est
A Christo regnante

Ezechielis porta
Clausa pertransitur
Unde lux est orta
Salus invenitur

Ergo nostra contio
Psallat iam in lustro
Benedicat Domino
Salus Regi nostro

Rejoice, rejoice! Christ is born
Of the Virgin Mary, rejoice!

The time of grace is here
That we have desired
Let us devoutly offer
Songs of rejoicing

God is made man
Nature marvels
The world is renewed
By Christ who is King

Ezekiel's closed gate
Has been passed through
There salvation is found
Where the light shines

Therefore let our song
Now sound to purify us
May the Lord be blessed
Salvation to our King
