- (Posted 2015-04-07) CPDL #34992:
- Editor: Corinne Cooze (submitted 2015-04-07). Score information: Letter, 3 pages, 193 kB Copyright: Public Domain
- Edition notes: This is a direct transcription (simply transposed up a half step) of the Introit, without the verse that is included in the Choralis Constantinus I because that text does not match the verse for that Sunday's introit.
I would personally suggest choosing an appropriate, corresponding psalm-tone to set the liturgically correct verse "Deus in nomine tuo salvum me fac: et in virtute tua iudica me.".

Ecce Deus adiuvat me,
et Dominus susceptor est animae meae:
averte mala inimicis meis,
in veritate tua disperde illos protector meus Domine.

Behold, God is my helper, and the Lord is the upholder of my soul; turn back all the
evil against my enemies, destroy them in your fidelity, O Lord, the Protector of my
life. Save me, O God, by your name, and render justice unto me in your strength.
