Christopher Tye (c.1505-1572)~Praise ye the Lord, ye children
The choir of Magdalen College, Oxford
Bill Ives~Director
(Harmonia Mundi 2005)
Praise ye the Lord, ye children: Praise ye the name of the Lord.
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
The Lord´s name be praised: from the east to the west.
The Lord is high above the nations: and his glory is above the heav´ns.
Who is like unto the Lord our God, which hath his dwelling on high:
and yet humbleth himself to behold things that are in heav´n and earth?
He raiseth up the weak out of the dust: and lifteth the poor our of the mire;
He maketh the barren woman to keep house: and to be a joyful mother of children.
So be it, Amen.
From "Christopher Tye~Latin & English Church Music" (Harmonia Mundi 2005)
