God Is Our Hope and Strength by J. G. Stalnaker — Lyrics
In finem. filiis Core, pro arcanis. Psalmus.
Deus noster refugium et virtus;
adjutor in tribulationibus quae invenerunt nos nimis.
Propterea non timebimus dum turbabitur terra,
et transferentur montes in cor maris.
Sonuerunt, et et turbatae sunt aquae eorum;
conturbati sunt montes in fortitudine ejus.
Fluminis impetus laetificat civitatem Dei:
sanctificavit tabernaculum suum Altissimus.
Deus in medio ejus, non commovebitur;
adjuvabit eam Deus mane diluculo.
Conturbatae sunt gentes, et inclinata sunt regna:
