Deus misereatur nostri by Annibale Stabile — Lyrics
In finem, in hymnis. Psalmus cantici David.
Deus misereatur nostri, et benedicat nobis; illuminet vultum suum super nos,
et misereatur nostri:
ut cognascamus in terra viam tuam, in omnibus gentibus salutare tuum.
Confiteantur tibi populi, Deus: confiteantur tibi populi omnes.

About Deus misereatur nostri
The psalm text Deus misereatur nostri invokes God's mercy and blessing, asking for divine guidance to be known throughout the earth. It is a prayer for all nations to recognize God's salvation and rejoice in His just judgment. Annibale Stabile sets this text in a powerful double choir (SATB.SATB) arrangement. The composer's response to the psalm's plea for universal recognition and blessing is a grand and resonant musical setting. This sacred motet, in Latin, offers a rich opportunity for a choir to explore intricate choral textures and express profound spiritual supplication and celebration.
