Lyrics: 

Passer invenit sibi domum, et turtur nidum ubi reponat pullos suos: altaria tua, Domine virtutem, Rex meus, et Deus meus: beati qui habitant in domo tua, in saeculum saeculi laudabunt te.

Translated Lyrics: 

The sparrow hath found herself a house, and the turtle a nest, where she may lay her young ones: Thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God: blessed are they that dwell in Thy house, they shall praise Thee for ever and ever.
