Text: Psalm 96:1, 11-13 (KJV)
Duration: 4 minutes
Difficulty: 2/4
Cantate Domino was written alongside my set of Simple Psalms, and shares the mindset of composing an accessible psalm setting for a cappella choir, while maintaining my own harmonic and textural language. However, Cantate Domino does not aim for extreme brevity, and the text (from Psalm 96) was instead adapted into a slightly-larger anthem in binary form.

Full Text
O sing unto the Lord a new song:
sing unto the Lord, all the earth.
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;
let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.
Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein:
then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
before the Lord: for he cometh,
for he cometh to judge the earth:
he shall judge the world with righteousness,
and the people with his truth.
