    Story Behind the Song
    I have always been facinated by Latin chants
    and ancient masses. It gives a sense of
    history and trancendence, and I enjoy mixing
    the ancient and the technological. This is
    what I tried to do in this song. Take an
    ancient fragment of chant
    (in the public domain!) and
    make a totally new song out of it.

    Lyrics
    Vita Vite Omnis Creature
    (Life of the life of all creation)
    Life within creation
    Loving fiery flame
    Strength within my being
    Come to me
    Veni spiritus, Sancte Spiritus
    (Come Spirit, Holy Spirit)
