Roman Hurko/Роман Гурко: O Lord, I have cried/Господи, воззвах (CUA Chamber Choir)

The Catholic University of America (CUA) Chamber Choir performs Roman Hurko's: Hospody, Vozzvach (Lord I have cried unto thee - Psalm 140/141) from Hurko's setting of Vespers, at the Baltimore Cathedral, 2019. Conducted by Dr. Timothy McDonnell.
English translation from the Church Slavonic:
O Lord, I have cried to You, hear me;
Hear me, O Lord!
O Lord, I have cried to You, hear me;
receive the voice of my prayer when I call upon you.
Hear me, O Lord!
Let my prayer rise like incense before you;
the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice.
Hear me, O Lord!
CHOIR (after every verse of the Canonarch): Hear me, O Lord!
CANONARCH (soloist):
Set a guard, O Lord, before my mouth, and a portal around my lips.
Incline my heart away from evil words, from finding excuses for sinful deeds.
In company with men who work iniquity let me not partake of what they choose.
May a just man chasten me in mercy and reprove me; may the oil of the wicked never touch my head.
Yet even then shall I pray for their welfare; their rulers were swallowed near the rock.
My words will be heard for they were sweet. As a lump of clay is broken on the ground, so their bones were strewn near Sheol.
