I got it out of the Book of Common Prayer.
I know it is a prose piece, but what does the title mean in English?

If memory serves me right, it is Latin for "Behold, God..."
Peace be with you!

Ecce, Deus
Canticle based on Is 12:2-6, which celebrates the return of Israel from exile. It begins, "Surely it is God who saves me; I will trust in him and not be afraid." Isaiah 12:1-6 presents two songs: Is 12:1-3 is a song of deliverance, and Is 12:4-6 is a song of thanksgiving. The canticle Ecce, Deus is also known as the First Song of Isaiah. It appears as Canticle 9 in Morning Prayer, Rite 2 (BCP, p. 86). It may be used in either Rite 2 or Rite 1 services. The BCP suggests its use at Morning Prayer after the OT reading on Monday, and at Evening Prayer after the OT reading on Saturday (pp. 144-145). The Hymnal 1982 Accompaniment Edition, Vol. 1, provides a variety of musical settings for the Ecce, Deus (S 213-S 216).
