What's the name of this catholic chant?

score:2

Accepted answer

I have no clue on how to go to find it

The main clue is to discern the underlying Latin text.

I also cannot understand the words

Me either ! But one doesn't have to be a Latin scholar to discern a spiritus meus in the lyrics.

Any ideas where should I look to find it?

The main idea is to get your hands on a searchable Latin bible.


Putting these three together, we finally arrive, after a few minutes of brainstorming, to the Vulgate version of:

Luke 1:47-48 et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo. Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae: ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes.

which is obviously part of the Magnificat.
