Suscepimus, Deus, misericordiam tuam in medio templi tui: secundum nomen tuum, Deus, ita et laus tua in fines terrae: justitia plena est dextera tua. Magnus Dominus, et laudabilis nimis: in civitate Dei nostri, in monte sancto ejus.  Gloria

Translated Lyrics: 

We have received Thy mercy, O God, in the midst of Thy temple; according to Thy Name, O God, so also is Thy praise unto the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of justice. (Ps. 47. 2). Great is the Lord, and exceedingly to be praised, in the city of God, in His holy mountain.  Glory
