Tollite hostias,
et adorate Dominum
in atrio sancto eius.
Laetentur coeli,
et exultet terra
a facie Domini,
quoniam venit.
English translation
Praise the Lord of hosts*,
and adore God
in His holy place.
Rejoice, heaven,
and exult, all the earth
before the Lord,
who comes.

- uns zum Heil erkoren.
- Jauchzet ihr Himmel,
- frohlocke du Erde,
