Crux Fidelis is a Traditional Good Friday Hymn 
attributed to Venantius Fortunatus (530 A.D. — 610 A.D.). 

Chanted during the Adoration of The Cross 
on Good Friday in the Roman Rite. 

This version follows the Gregorian Chant 
Tradition and is arranged for Choral Use.


We are now traversing Easter Week at the various final Stational Basilicas, thanking God for our wonderful deliverance, and awiting Low Sunday (Dominica in Albis), when the “Neophytes” discard their new White Garments 
and become a valued member of the Catholic Community.

To all Readers: 
Easter Blessings and Easter Peace.
May God Bless us all.

In Domino.


Just as one Tree was the downfall of Man, 
another Tree was the Salvation of Man.

We are most grateful to our Mediæval Liturgical Chant Correspondent, Dante P, for bringing this outstanding Hymn to our attention and suggesting sharing with all our Readers.
