*The author of this text is unknown. For many years, the only English singing translation was J. M. Neale’s ‘Here is Joy for Every Age’ (1853). Because Neale’s
translation preserved only the rhyme scheme and sacrificed the bulk of the Latin meaning, a new translation has been prepared by the composer.
