     The Song of Moses   Cantemus Domino

I will sing to the Lord, for he is lofty and uplifted; *
 * the horse and its rider has he hurled into the sea.

The Lord is my strength and my refuge; *
 * the Lord has become my Savior.

This is my God and I will praise him, *
 * the God of my people and I will exalt him.

The Lord is a mighty warrior; *
 * Yahweh is his Name.

The chariots of Pharaoh and his army has he hurled into the sea; *
 * the finest of those who bear armor have been drowned in the Red Sea.

The fathomless deep has overwhelmed them; *
 * they sank into the depths like a stone.

Your right hand, O Lord, is glorious in might; *
 * your right hand, O Lord, has overthrown the enemy.

Who can be compared with you, O Lord, among the gods? *
 * who is like you, glorious in holiness,
 * awesome in renown, and worker of wonders?

You stretched forth your right hand; *
 * the earth swallowed them up.

With your constant love you led the people you redeemed; *
 * with your might you brought them in safety to your holy dwelling.

You will bring them in and plant them *
 * on the mount of your possession,

The resting&#8209;place you have made for yourself, O Lord, *
 * the sanctuary, O Lord, that your hand has established.

The Lord shall reign *
 * for ever and for ever.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: *
 * as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever.  Amen.
