Benedicat nos Deus, Op. 9, No. 2 by Johann Kaspar Aiblinger — Lyrics

In finem, in hymnis. Psalmus cantici David. Deus misereatur nostri, et benedicat nobis; illuminet vultum suum super nos, et misereatur nostri: ut cognascamus in terra viam tuam, in omnibus gentibus salutare tuum. Confiteantur tibi populi, Deus: confiteantur tibi populi omnes.

The prayer culminates in a joyful exultation as peoples confess God's righteousness and rejoice in His guidance.

Composer Johann Kaspar Aiblinger's work offers a rich harmonic setting for this deeply spiritual message, making it a fitting choice for liturgical occasions.
