Beati omnes qui timent Dominum by Gallus Dreßler — 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
This motet sets words from Psalm 127, a joyful vision of domestic and spiritual prosperity for those who revere God. The text offers a rich blessing, promising fruitfulness, a loving spouse, healthy children, and enduring peace. Gallus Dreßler’s setting for SSATB voices draws out the text’s warmth and assurance. The music unfolds with clarity and a devotional spirit, making it an uplifting choice for services or concerts. The Latin text, with its focus on the blessings of a righteous life, speaks directly to the heart, inviting reflection and gratitude.
