Examples
Singer with band, conempoary Latin style:
Lyrics:
Let the deep organ swell the layIn honour of this festive day;
Let the harmonious choirs proclaim
Cecilia's ever-blessed name.
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.
Then from the world's bewildering strife,
In peace she spent her holy life,
Teaching the organ to combine
With voice, to praise the Lamb divine.
Cecilia, with a twofold crown
Adorned in heaven, we pray look down
Upon thy fervent votaries here,
And hearken to their humble prayer.
