Laudate Dominum (Psalm 117)
Laudate Dominum omnes gentes
laudate eum, omnes populi
Quoniam confirmata est super nos misericordia ejus,
et veritas Domini manet in aeternum.
Gloria Patri, et Filio et Spiritui Sancto.
Secut erat in principio, et nunc, et simper,
et in saecula saeculorum. Amen
(O praise the Lord, all ye nations;
Praise him, all ye peoples
For his loving kindness has been bestowed upon us,
and the truth of the Lord endures forever.
Glory be to the Father, and to the son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
Captured in music in Vesperae solemnes de Confessore, K 3339 W. A. Mozart)
