The gentle and sweet melody of this bilingual setting of the Crux Fidelis hymn from the Misal Romano and Roman Missal evokes the infinite love of Christ, who died on the cross for us. Scored for SATB choir with Latin descant, keyboard, guitar, and assembly version, this piece will draw congregations together in meditation on the mystery of the Cross. Because the verses employ the same harmonies as the refrain, the choir can also sing in harmony on the verses if so desired. This song can be used for Good Friday during the Adoration of the Holy Cross, as well as for Stations of the Cross, Palm Sunday, and the Exaltation of the Holy Cross (September 14).
