My choir is performing this piece. What a wonderful time to be a tenor. :) Great music, as usual religious justification for terrible human actions, but in the past that is we had to work with.
Henry V (1989) Kenneth Branagh, Non Nobis, and Te Deum Non nobis, is a short Latin hymn used as a prayer of thanksgiving and expression of humility. The Latin text derives from Psalm 113:9 (according to the Vulgate numbering), which corresponds to Psalm 115:1 in the King James Version. It reads…
Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, [Not to us, Lord, not to us]
Sed nomini tuo da gloriam. [But to Thy name give the glory]
