Do we gather then that they didn't

enter then your gates with praise,
approach with joy your courts unto;
praise, laud, and bless your Name always?

Does anyone care what it is in Italian? Ever since reading those English words yesterday I've been humming it, but my brain keeps substituting the Italian words...

Noi canteremo gloria a te (We sing glory to you)
Padre che dai la vita (Father who gives us life)
Dio d'immensa caritá (God of immense charity)
Trinita infinita (Infinite trinity)

Dio d'immensa carità


I love the sound of those Italian words that end in - much more euphonious than their English ty equivalents, IMHO.

"He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart." [Psalm 91:4]

"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing. [Matthew 23:37]
