All people that on earth do dwell (1592) by Louis Bourgeois — Lyrics

Psalmus in confessione. Jubilate Deo, omnis terra; servite Domino in laetitia. Introite in conspectu ejus in exsultatione. Scitote quoniam Dominus ipse est Deus; ipse fecit nos, et non ipsi nos: populus ejus, et oves pascuae ejus.

About All people that on earth do dwell (1592)

The music opens with a bold and declarative statement, immediately establishing its robust character. This setting of the well-known psalm text, "All people that on earth do dwell," is arranged for SATB choir. The jubilant Latin text, which translates into the familiar English words of Psalm 100, calls for joyful service and praise to God. The composer treats the melody with dignity and strength, allowing the powerful message of thanksgiving and God's everlasting mercy to shine through. The vocal lines are crafted to build effectively, creating a sense of communal exultation suitable for congregational singing and inspired reflection.
