Dynamics in the MP3 are probably not as they should be sung!
Note: If you want to listen to the MP3, I strongly recommend downloading it and playing it with a media player on your computer, not trying to listen to it online, because it's almost seven minutes long!
Translation (from the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter):
We praise Thee, O God: We acknowledge Thee to be the Lord. All the earth doth worship Thee, the Father everlasting. To Thee all the Angels cry aloud, the Heavens and all the Powers therein: To Thee the Cherubim and Seraphim continually do cry: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of Hosts. Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty of Thy glory. The glorious choir of the Apostles praise Thee. The admirable company of the Prophets praise Thee. The white-robed army of Martyrs praise Thee. The Holy Church throughout the world doth acknowledge Thee, the Father of infinite majesty, Thine adorable, true and only Son, and the Holy Ghost the Comforter. Thou art the King of glory, O Christ. Thou art the everlasting Son of the Father. Thou, when Thou wouldst take human nature to deliver man, didst not disdain the Virgin's womb. When Thou hadst overcome the sting of death, Thou didst open to believers the kingdom of heaven. Thou sittest at the right hand of God, in the glory of the Father. We believe that Thou shalt come to be our Judge. WE BESEECH THEE, THEREFORE, HELP THY SERVANTS, WHOM THOU HAST REDEEMED WITH THY PRECIOUS BLOOD. Make them to be numbered with Thy saints in glory everlasting. O Lord, save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance. Govern them, and exalt them forever. Day by day, we bless Thee; And we praise Thy name forever, yea, forever and ever. Vouchsafe, O Lord, this day to keep us without sin. Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us. Let Thy mercy be upon us, O Lord, as we have hoped in Thee. O Lord, in Thee have I hoped, let me not be confounded forever.
