Lyrics: 

Dominus, fortitudo plebis suae, et protector salutarium Christi sui est: salvum fac populum tuum, Domine, et benedic hereditati tuae, et rege eos usque in saeculum. Ad te, Domine, clamabo, Deus meus, ne sileas a me: nequando taceas a me, et assimilabor descendentibus in lacum. V. Gloria Patri

Translated Lyrics: 

The Lord is the strength of His people, and the protector of the salvation of His anointed: save, O Lord, Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance, and rule them for ever. (Ps. 27. 1). Unto Thee will I cry, O Lord: O my God, be not Thou silent to me, lest if Thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. V. Glory to the Father
