Cantate Domino by Nobuaki Izawa — Lyrics
Canticum ipsi David, quando domus aedificabatur post captivitatem.
Cantate Domino canticum novum; cantate Domino omnis terra.
Cantate Domino, et benedicite nomini ejus; annuntiate de die in diem salutare ejus.
Annuntiate inter gentes gloriam ejus; in omnibus populis mirabilia ejus.
Quoniam magnus Dominus, et laudabilis nimis: terribilis est super omnes deos.
Quoniam omnes dii gentium daemonia; Dominus autem caelos fecit.
Confessio et pulchritudo in conspectu ejus; sanctimonia et magnificentia in sanctificatione ejus.
Afferte Domino, patriae gentium, afferte Domino gloriam et honorem;

About Cantate Domino
Cantate Domino is a jubilant SATB motet in Latin, setting a text from the Book of Psalms that calls for praise and thanksgiving. The opening lines speak of a new song to be sung to the Lord, announcing his salvation and glory among all nations. Nobuaki Izawa's setting embraces the psalm's message of God's greatness and magnificence, urging a response of confession and beauty offered in his presence. This piece would be particularly fitting for services of thanksgiving or special occasions, celebrating the grandeur of the divine and the joy of community.
