Carly Simon, arr. Craig Hella Johnson |
Exsultate Justi |
|
Andreas Hakenberger (c. 1574-1627) |
|
Rejoice in God, ye just. Praise is fitting for the upright. Give praise to God upon the harp, Play on the ten-stringed psaltery. Sing to God a new song, sing skillfully with a strong voice. For the Word of God is true, and all God's works are done with truth. God loves compassion and justice: The earth is full of the goodness of God. |

To all I propose: let's enjoy life! Do not suffer for the future, The past is already a joke; Better enjoy your present; the present is what is real! Refrain: Therefore, let's enjoy the delicious sound of life! At times tears overwhelm me, because the heart aches; But it already hurts less when I sing this song! When I have money, I enjoy it wholeheartedly; And when I have nothing I still have fun dancing to this song! Refrain This is how we sing in Mexico, with love and passion; And the throat opens up to give the heart away! Refrain |

Occidental glorious. O’er her foes victorious. Be her praise uproarious! Occidental Fair. ‘Neath the mountains old and grand, By the roar of ocean strand. Girt with might forever stand! Occidental Fair.
