Misericordias Domini in æternum cantabo

Confitemini Domino quoniam bonus
Quoniam in æternum misericordia ejus

Qui fecit mirabilia magna solus
Quoniam in æternum misericordia ejus

Quia in humilitate nostra memor fuit nostri
Quoniam in æternum misericordia ejus

Confitemini Domino domininorum
Quoniam in æternum misericordia ejus

Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto
Sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper
Et in sæcula seculorum
Amen

Superlativa esecuzione. Lode e gloria all'unico vero Dio, il Dio di Abramo, di Isacco e di Giacobbe, padre di Nostro Signore Gesù Cristo. L'Occidente abbandoni la sua ottusità e ritorni all'unico Salvatore. Laus tibi Domine! Nunc et semper.

Let's pray for all of the brothers and sisters in Christ that suffer persecutions in the Middle and the Far East because of their faith. Let's pray for the new martyrs of the present era in Western countries, discrimined and persecuted by law and governments because they said the truth and they proclaimed human dignity under a Christian perspective. Amen.
