Cantate Domino

J. Rutter

Cantate Domino canticum novum.

O sing unto the Lord a new song:

sing unto the Lord, all the whole earth.

Sing unto the Lord, and praise his Name:

be telling of his salvation from day to day.

Declare his honour unto the heathen:

and his wonders unto all people.

For the Lord is great, and cannot worthily be praised:

he is more to be feared than all gods.

As for all the gods of the heathen, they are but idols:

but it is the Lord that made the heavens.

Glory and worship are before him:

power and honour are in his sanctuary.

Ascribe unto the Lord the honour due unto his Name:

bring presents, and come into his courts.

O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness:

let the whole earth stand in awe of him.

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad:

for he cometh to judge the earth.

Veni Creator Spiritus

Mentes tuorum visita:

Imple superna gratia

Quae tu creasti pectora.

Cantate Domino canticum novum.
