Movement 1
Exaudi orationem meam, Domine,
et deprecationem meam.
Auribus percipe lacrimas meas.
Ne sileas.
Quoniam advena ego sum apud te et peregrinus,
sicut omnes patres mei.
Remitte mihi, ut refrigerer prius quam abeam
et amplius non ero.
Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication.
Hear my tears with Your ears.
Be not silent.
For I am a stranger to You,
and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
Forgive me that I may be refreshed before I go
and be no more.
Movement 2
Expectans expectavi Dominum, et intendit mihi.
Et exaudivit preces meas:
et eduxit me de lacu miseriae, et de luto faecis.
Et statuit super petram pedes meos:
et direxit gressus meos.
Et immisit in os meum canticum novum,
carmen Deo nostro.
Videbunt multi, et timebunt: et sperabunt in Domino.
I waited patiently for the Lord, and He inclined unto me, and heard my calling.
And He heard my prayers: and He brought me up out of the pit of misery, and out of the mire and clay.
And He set my feet upon a rock,
and He ordered my goings.
And He put a new song in my mouth, even a thanksgiving to our God.
Many shall see and fear: and they will hope in the Lord.
Movement 3
Alleluia. Laudate Dominum in sanctis ejus;
laudate eum in firmamento virtutis ejus.
Laudate eum in virtutibus ejus;
laudate eum secundum
multitudinem magnitudinis ejus.
Laudate eum in sono tubae...
Laudate eum in timpano et choro;
laudate eum in chordis et organo.
Laudate eum in cymbalis benesonantibus;
laudate eum in cymbalis jubilationis.
Omnis spiritus laudet Dominum. Alleluia.
Alleluia. Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in His sanctuary:
Praise Him in the firmament of His power.
Praise Him for his mighty acts:
Praise Him according to the multitude of His greatness.
Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet…
Praise Him with the timbrel and choir,
praise Him with strings and organs.
Praise Him upon the well-tuned cymbals,
praise Him with cymbals of joy.
Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord.
Alleluia.
