Emendemus in melius - The Sixteen, Harry Christophers

Emendemus in melius

Quae ignoranter peccavimus

Ne subito praeoccupati die mortis

Queramus spatium poenitentiae

Et invenire non possumus

Attende, Domine, et miserere

Quia peccavimus tibi

Adiuva nos, Deus salutaris noster

Et propter honorem nominis tui libera nos

Let's correct

We sinned unknowingly

Don't be suddenly overtaken by the day of death

Let us seek time for repentance

We can't find it

Attend, O Lord, and have mercy

Because we have sinned against you

Help us, O God our Savior

And therefore deliver us to the honor of your name
