Es ticu Dieva aizgādībai (Коль славен наш Господь в Сионе) by Dmitri Bortniansky — Lyrics
About Es ticu Dieva aizgādībai (Коль славен наш Господь в Сионе)
Dmitri Bortniansky, a towering figure in Russian sacred music, composed this anthem for SATB choir. The text, sung here in Latvian, is a profound expression of faith and trust in divine providence. It speaks of God's watchful eye guiding all creation, the certainty of His grace, and the peace found in accepting life's burdens through divine strength. The lyrics convey a deep personal reliance on God's constant presence, finding solace in Him during both joy and sorrow, and aspiring to eternal union. This anthem offers a rich, devotional experience for choir and listeners alike.
