Beati omnes qui timent Dominum by Gregor Aichinger — Lyrics
Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.
Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuae;
filii tui sicut novellae olivarum in circuitu mensae tuae.

About Beati omnes qui timent Dominum
Sung in Latin, this motet by Gregor Aichinger is drawn from Psalm 127, offering a blessing on those who fear the Lord. The text speaks of the fruits of hard work, the joy of family, and the enduring peace granted by God. Aichinger's setting, for SSATB choir, would be fitting for services of thanksgiving or occasions celebrating domestic virtues. Its rich scoring allows for expressive interplay between the voices, creating a warm and resonant sound world that beautifully conveys the psalm's message of divine favour and prosperity.
