Text: O quam suavis est, Domine
Peter Philips (c. 1560–1628)
| Original Text | English Translation |
| O quam suavis est, Domine, Spiritus tuus, qui ut dulcedinem tuam in filios demonstrares pane suavissimo de caelo praestito. Esurientes reples bonis, fastidiosos divites dimittens inanes. |
O how sweet, O Lord, is your spirit, you who, to show your tenderness to your children, feed them with the sweetest bread from heaven. You fill the hungry with good things, sending the fussy rich away empty. |
