Cantique de Jean Racine

Gabriel Fauré Gabriel Fauré

Canticle of Jean Racine

Word equal to the Most High, our only hope,
Eternal day of the earth and the heavens,
From the peaceful night we break the silence:
Divine savior, cast your eyes upon us.
Pour out on us the fire of your powerful grace;
May all hell flee at the sound of your voice;
Dispel this sleep of a languishing soul
That leads it to forget your laws!
O Christ! Be favorable to this faithful people,
Assembled now to bless you;
Receive the songs it offers to your immortal glory,
And may it return filled with your gifts.
