Lyrics: Daniel 14: 39,40,42

Rex Babilonis venit ad lacum, et introspexit,
et ecce Daniel sedens in medio leonum.
Et exclamavit rex voce magna dicens:
Magnus es Domine, Deus Danielis,
et extraxit eum de lacu leonum.
Tunc rex ait: Paveant habitantes
universam terram Deum Danielis,
quia ipse est salvator et liberator,
faciens mirabilia in coelo et in terra,
qui liberavit Danielem de lacu leonum.

The king of Babylon came to the den, and looked in,
and behold Daniel was sitting in the midst of the lions.
And the king cried out with a loud voice, saying:
Great art thou, O Lord the God of Daniel.
and he drew him out of the lions' den.
Then the king said: Let all the inhabitants
of the whole earth fear the God of Daniel,
for he is the saviour and deliverer,
working signs and wonders in the earth,
who hath delivered Daniel out of the lions' den.
