Vocal Text

Cecilia,

Fiat cor meum immaculatum, et non confundar.

We salute thee, O Virgin, who didst give thy blood for the defense and faith of Jesus Christ.

Saint Cecilia, pray for us.

Let the deep organ swell the lay In honour of this festive day; Let the harmonious choirs proclaim Cecilia's ever-blessed name.

Saint Cecilia, pray for us.

Rome gave the Virgin-Martyr birth, Whose holy name hath filled the earth, And from the early dawn of youth She fixed her heart on God and truth.

Saint Cecilia, pray for us.

Fiat cor meum, cor meum, et corpus meus, fiat… immaculatum.

Cecilia, whose heart burned with the fire of Divine love, pray for us. Cecilia, consolation of the afflicted, pray for us. Saint Cecilia, pray for us.

Then from the world's bewildering strife, In peace she spent her holy life,

Make my heart and body pure

Cecilia, who didst unceasingly see thy guardian Angel by thy side, pray for us, pray for us.

Make my heart and body pure.

Teaching the organ to combine With voice, to praise the Lamb divine.

Make my heart and body pure that I be not confounded.

Saint Cecilia, who by thy melodious accents celebrated praises of Jesus, pray for us. Pray for us.

Fiat cor meum, cor meum immaculatum et non confundar. Fiat cor meum et corpus meus immaculatum…

et non confundar et non confundar, et non confundar

Fiat cor meum immaculatum/ Fiat cor meum immaculatum

Cecilia
