Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus: Laudate Dominum


Laudate Dominum from Solemn Vespers K. 339 (1780)

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.
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper.
Et in saecula saeculorum. Amen

O praise the Lord, all ye nations;
Praise him, all ye people.
For his merciful kindness is ever more and more towards us,
And the truth of the Lord endureth for ever.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be:
World without end. Amen.

Words: Psalm 117
Music: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–91)
