Factus est repente (Acts 2:2,4) – James MacMillan

Acts 2:2,4 [Latin] – ² And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. ⁴ And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak.

Et factus est repente de caelo sonus, tamquam advenientis spiritus vehementis, et replevit totam domum ubi erant sedentes. Et repleti sunt omnes Spiritu Sancto, et coeperunt loqui variis linguis, prout Spiritus Sanctus dabat eloqui illis.

Factus est repente (from “The Strathclyde Motets”) – a communion motet for Pentecost, published in 2008 and composed by James MacMillan (b. 1959)
