Psalm 96 ~ Sing to the Lord, all the earth! †

Gloria - Antonio Vivaldi 4 March 1678 – 28 July 1741, wrote for the all-female music ensemble of the Ospedale della Pietà, a home for abandoned children. Vivaldi had worked there as a Catholic priest 1703-1715 and from 1723-1740!

Today we are listening to Gloria by Vivaldi. Completed in 1715. Just as Vivaldi lived far beyond the life expectancy of his era - Gloria has gone far. Enjoyed and loved for centuries to arrive.

Philippians 1:6
Being confident of this, 
that He who began a good work in you
 will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ!

The Ospedale della Pietà is the Joy of Jesus. His Strength. This began as Hospice for the needy and progressed to a shelter for abandoned children. The Light of Jesus Christ shines beyond borders and boundaries and the world began to arrive to find - school, a music school for the young women with families - filled with Music, Joy and Talent. Very far from Charles Dickens idea of orphanages.

Ospedale della Pietà was a convent, orphanage, and music school in Venice. Like other Venetian ospedali, the Pietà was first established as a hospice for the needy. A group of Venetian nuns, called the Consorelle di Santa Maria dell’Umiltà, established this charitable institution for orphans and abandoned girls in the fourteenth century. By the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the Pietà - along with the three other charitable Ospedali Grandi - was well known for its all-female musical ensembles that attracted tourists and patrons from around Europe.

Psalm 96

 Oh sing to the Lord a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth!

2 Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples!


4 For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
he is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
but the Lord made the heavens.

6 Splendor and majesty are before him;
strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.





7 Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
8 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
bring an offering, and come into his courts!
9 Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness;
tremble before him, all the earth!




10 Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns!
Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved;
he will judge the peoples with equity.”

11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
12 let the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy



Before the Lord, for he comes,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
and the peoples in his faithfulness.
