Exsultate Lyrics

There's a light upon the mountains and the day is at the spring
when our eyes shall see the wonder and the glory it will bring
et laudate Domino in laetitia
et cantate Domino gloria
saecula et saeculorum
Alleluia
Hark, we hear a distant music and it comes with fuller swell
'tis the glorious song of heaven and our fears it will dispel
Exsultate Domino omnis populi
Alleluia
Jubilate Domino omnis terra
Alleluia
Angeli et archangeli,
psallite et laudate
in hymnis et psalmis
et canticis

We hear a distant music -
it comes with fuller swell
for the angels here are human,
not the shining hosts above
for the drumbeats of the army
are the heartbeats of our love
