1 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.
1 O sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing unto the Lord, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.
14 For this God is our God for ever and ever …
Magnus Dominus et laudabilis nimis in civitate Dei nostri in monte sancto eius.
Cantate Domino, canticum novum, cantate Domino omnis terra, cantate Domino, et benedicite nomini eius. Annuntiate de die in diem salutare eius. Annuntiate inter gentes gloriam eius, in omnibus populis mirabilia eius.
… Hic est Deus, Deus noster in aeternum et in saeculum saeculi …

8 And the centurion making answer, said: Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldst enter under my roof: but only say the word, and my servant [“my soul” in Victoria’s music] shall be healed.
3 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak: heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.
Domine, non sum dignus ut intres sub tectum meum, sed tantum dic verbum, et sanabitur anima mea. Miserere mei, quoniam infirmus sum; sana me, Domine, et sanabor.
28 Come to me, all you that labour, and are burdened, and I will refresh you.
29 Take up my yoke upon you, and learn of me, because I am meek, and humble of heart: and you shall find rest to your souls.
30 For my yoke is sweet and my burden light.
Venite ad me omnes qui laboratis, et onerati estis, et ego reficiam vos. Tollite jugum meum super vos, et discite a me, quia mitis sum, et humilis corde: et invenietis requiem animabus vestris. Jugum enim meum suave est, et onus meum leve.
Venite ad me omnes (2019), composed by Brian Scully
