Psalm 40:1-3

1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth [lyrics: “I will sing, sing a new song” – see also Psalm 96:1], even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and […”and hear” in U2 song] fear, and shall trust in the Lord.

[Also, from lyrics: “How long to sing this song?”]

John 16:24,27 [Latin]

24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

24 Usque modo non petistis quidquam in nomine meo: petite, et accipietis, ut gaudium vestrum sit plenum.

27 ipse enim Pater amat vos, quia vos me amastis, et credidistis, quia ego a Deo exivi.

Petite et accipietis (1619), from Cantiones sacrae, no. 15, composed by Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck (1562-1621)

A crucifix on an open Bible showing the Lord’s prayer (Matthew 6:9–13)

Matthew 6:9-13 [Latin]

9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

9 Sic ergo vos orabitis: Pater noster, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum.

10 Adveniat regnum tuum; fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra.

11 Panem nostrum supersubstantialem da nobis hodie,

12 et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.

13 Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

Pater noster, from Gregorian Missal, Solesmes, 1990, p. 41 or Liber cantualis, Solesmes, 1983, p. 27 or Graduale Romanum, Solesmes, 1974, p. 812

Antiphon from Psalm 46 (Vulgate) / Psalm 47 (Hebrew Bible) with neumes in the antiphonary Codex Einsidlensis 121, 2nd half of the 10th century: Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus.
Antiphon from Psalm 46 (Vulgate) / Psalm 47 (Hebrew Bible) with neumes in the antiphonary Codex Einsidlensis 121, 2nd half of the 10th century: Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus.

Psalm 47:1-5 [Latin Vulgate: Psalm 46:2-6]

1 O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

2 For the Lord most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.

3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.

4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

5 God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.

Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus; jubilate Deo in voce exsultationis: quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis, rex magnus super omnem terram. Subjecit populos nobis, et gentes sub pedibus nostris. Elegit nobis haereditatem suam; speciem Jacob quam dilexit. Ascendit Deus in jubilo, et Dominus in voce tubae.

Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus à 16 (1597), from Symphoniae sacrae I, no. 61, composed by Giovanni Gabrieli (c.1554/1557-1612)
