Semiotic analysis is used to reveal the meaning of texts by analyzing the present signs and codes. Texts as such are encoded with certain meanings that need to be decoded and interpreted to understand the context and message conveyed by the texts. Music as a medium, i.e. a communication tool, is a mediator in the transmission of beliefs, attitudes and messages in general. In this way popular spiritual music promotes Catholic values by conveying the message of the Gospel. This thesis deals with the method of discourse analysis, designed by Norman Fairclough. Using the method of semiotic analysis of language and discourse in the lyrics of the songwriter Čedo Antolić, this paper seeks to contribute to the knowledge of the artistic approach and communication of the recently deceased singer-songwriter. The analysis of the texts in the thesis is preceded by the definition of the basic concepts of popular spiritual music, and a brief overview of the life and work of Čedo Antolić. The songs analyzed in the research part of the thesis were selected from a series of songs that have been awarded over the years at the Festival of popular spiritual music Uskrs Fest. In addition to the analysis of the linguistic and stylistic structure of the lyrics, special attention was paid to the analysis of biblical motifs in the texts of Čedo Antolić. The results of the research showed a significant presence of biblical motifs. Observing individual biblical motifs in the context of their interpretation according to the Dictionary of Biblical Theology and Interpretation of Biblical Symbols by Maurice Cocagnac, it is noticed the layering of texts in the interpretation of their meaning.
