In Deo laudabo by Carlotta Ferrari — Lyrics
In finem, pro populo qui a sanctis longe factus est. David in tituli inscriptionem,
cum tenuerunt eum Allophyli in Geth.
Miserere mei, Deus, quoniam conculcavit me homo; tota die impugnans, tribulavit me.
Conculcaverunt me inimici mei tota die, quoniam multi bellantes adversum me.
Ab altitudine
diei timebo: ego vero in te sperabo.
In Deo laudabo sermones meos; in Deo speravi: non timebo
quid faciat mihi caro.
Tota die verba mea execrabantur; adversum me omnes cogitationes eorum in malum.
Inhabitabunt, et abscondent; ipsi calcaneum meum observabunt. Sicut sustinuerunt animam meam,

About In Deo laudabo
Carlotta Ferrari sets a powerful Latin text that speaks of deep personal struggle and unwavering faith. The words express a profound sense of being overwhelmed by enemies and tribulations, yet simultaneously holding onto hope and trust in God. The composer has chosen to set this for a double choir, SATB.SATB, which offers rich possibilities for antiphonal effects, dynamic contrast, and textural depth. This sacred work would allow for a dramatic and moving performance, with the divided forces creating a grand sonic landscape that mirrors the intensity of the text. The Latin language, traditional in sacred music, adds a solemn and timeless quality to the piece.
