Exsultate justi in domino by Andreas Hakenberger — Lyrics
Psalmus David. Exsultate, justi, in Domino; rectos decet collaudatio.
Confitemini Domino in cithara; in psalterio decem chordarum psallite illi.
Cantate ei canticum novum; bene psallite ei in vociferatione.
Quia rectum est verbum Domini, et omnia opera ejus in fide.

ponens in thesauris abyssos.

Beata gens cujus est Dominus Deus ejus; populus quem

About Exsultate justi in domino
Andreas Hakenberger’s motet Exsultate justi in domino is a vibrant and joyful setting of psalm verses calling for praise of God. The text, taken from Psalm 33, urges the righteous to rejoice in the Lord, to sing to Him a new song with well-tuned voices and with a loud cry. It speaks of God's word being right, His works faithful, and His love of mercy and judgment. The composer’s setting for SSATBB voices in Latin is a powerful declaration of faith and jubilation, with musical lines that eagerly follow the exultant mood of the sacred text.
