O vos omnes is a part of the Roman Catholic choral liturgy for Holy Week. It has been set by several composers over many centuries. The text is adapted from Lamentations 1:12. O vos omnes qui transitis per viam, attendite et videte: Si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus. Attendite, universi populi, et videte dolorem meus. Si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus.
O all you who pass along this way: attend and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow. Take note, all people and see my sorrow: if there is any sorrow like my sorrow.
This choral setting was composed by Richard Burchard for the Riverside City College Chamber Singers of Riverside, California. The wind band transcription was made by Clifton Taylor for the Crestview High School Band of Crestview, Florida, and their director, Jody Dunn.
