Lyrics: 

Laudáte Dóminum quóniam bonus est psalmus: * Deo nostro sit jucúnda, decóraque laudátio.
2  Ædíficans Jerúsalem Dóminus: * dispersiónes Israël congregábit.
3  Qui sanat contrítos corde: * et álligat contritiónes eórum.
4  Qui númerat multitúdinem stellárum: * et ómnibus eis nómina vocat.
5  Magnus Dóminus noster, et magna virtus ejus: * et sapiéntiæ ejus non est númerus.
6  Suscípiens mansuétos Dóminus: * humílians autem peccatóres usque ad terram.
7  præcínite Dómino in confessióne: * psállite Deo nostro in cíthara.
8  Qui óperit cælum núbibus: * et parat terræ plúviam.
9  Qui prodúcit in móntibus fœnum: * et herbam servitúti hóminum.
10  Qui dat juméntis escam ipsórum: * et pullis corvórum invocántibus eum.
11  Non in fortitúdine equi voluntátem habébit: * nec in tíbiis viri beneplácitum erit ei.
12  Beneplácitum est Dómino super timéntes eum: * et in eis, qui sperant super misericórdia ejus.
Et non dicitur Glória Patri.

Translated Lyrics: 

O praise ye the Lord, for it is a good thing to sing praises : * unto our God be joyful and seemly praise.
2  The Lord doth build up Jerusalem, * he shall gather together the dispersed of Israel.
3  He healeth those that are broken in heart, * and bindeth up their bruises.
4  He telleth the number of the stars, * and calleth them all by their names.
5  Great is our Lord, and great is his power; * yea, and his wisdom is infinite.
6  The Lord lifteth up the meek, * and bringeth the ungodly down even to the ground.
7  O sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; * sing praises upon the harp unto our God:
8  Who covereth the heaven with clouds, * and prepareth rain for the earth.
9  Who maketh the grass to grow upon the mountains, * and herb for the use of men.
10  Who giveth fodder unto the cattle, * and feedeth the young ravens that call upon him.
11  He hath no pleasure in the strength of an horse; * neither delighteth he in the legs of man.
12  But the Lord's delight is in them that fear him, * and put their trust in his mercy.
Here is not said Glory be.
