XI. Meditation No. 3 (De profundis, Part 1) Lyrics(Tape Nine.)
[CHOIR]
De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine;
Domine, audi vocem meam!
Fiant aures tuae intentae
Ad vocem obsecrationis meae
Si delictorum memoriam servaveris
Domine!
Quis sustenebit?
Sed penes te est peccatorum venia
Ut cum reverentia serviatur tibi
Spero in Dominum
Sperat anima mea in verbum eius
Spero!
Sperat!
[CELEBRANT, spoken]
Memеnto, Domine … Remembеr, O Lord
Thy servants and handmaids …
Richard, Ann, John, Judy, Frank, Harold, Janet, Mary … And all here present
Whose faith is known to Thee
And for whom we offer up this sacrifice
We beseech Thee
In the fellowship of communion
Graciously to accept it and
Grant peace to our days
