Apotheosis .​.​. Spem in alium

from I Never Saw Another Butterfly (1991) by Thomas Oboe Lee

/

lyrics

Spem in alium nunquam habui
praeter in te, Deus Israel,
qui irasceris et propitius eris,
et omnia peccata hominum
in tribulatione dimittis.
Dominie Deus, creator caeli et terrae
respice humilitatem nostram

My hope have I never put in any but in you, God of Israel,
who will be angry, and yet be gracious,
and who absolvest all the sins of mankind in tribulation.
Lord God, creator of heaven and earth, be mindful of our lowliness.
