Chantés à Dieu chanson nouvelle by Didier Lupi second — Lyrics
Chantés à Dieu chanson nouvelle,
Faittes donc sa louange belle
En l'Eglise des bons ouir.
Israël sans cesse
Prenne sa liesse
Au Dieu qui l'a fait.
Sus Syon qu'on voye
Tes fils mener ioye
En leur Roy parfait.
2. Loues tous son nom, sa hautesse,
Au son de fluste et de tabour,
Et sur la Harpe chanteresse
Chantés luy Psalmes chascun iour.
Car l'Eternel ayme
La gent qui le clame
Son Roy, son appuy,
Voire et glorifie,
L'humble qui se fie,
Et s'attend à luy.
3. Certes en gloire souveraine
Les vertueux s'esgayeront,
Et de voix ioyeuse et seraine

About Chantés à Dieu chanson nouvelle
Didier Lupi second composed this sacred song for SATB voices, setting a French text of praise. The lyrics call for a new song to God, celebrating His glory and faithfulness. They urge the faithful to rejoice in God as their King, lifting His name with instruments and psalms. The text speaks of the virtuous finding joy and singing of God's wonders, highlighting His love for those who call upon Him and His exaltation of the humble. The music would suit a setting that embraces the jubilant and devotional spirit of the Renaissance sacred song tradition.
