Dartmouth by Amos Pilsbury — Lyrics
Alleluja. Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, in consilio justorum,
et congregatione.
Magna opera Domini: exquisita in omnes voluntates ejus.
Confessio et magnificentia opus ejus, et justitia ejus manet in saeculum saeculi.
Memoriam fecit mirabilium suorum, misericors et miserator
Dominus.
Escam dedit timentibus se; memor erit in saeculum testamenti sui.
Virtutem operum suorum annuntiabit populo suo,

About Dartmouth
Amos Pilsbury composed Dartmouth as a setting for sacred text. The work is scored for SATB choir and combines Latin and English lyrics. The Latin sections draw from Psalm 111, expressing praise and thanksgiving to God for His mighty works, His justice, and His eternal covenant. The text speaks of God's remembrance of His people and His commandments, celebrating His truth and equity. The hymn-like character suggests its suitability for congregational or devotional settings, offering a profound expression of faith and reverence through rich choral harmony.
