    I know the first is Sicut Cervus. We sung that one for the Easter Vigil last year. What is the second? The one that starts at around 3:33? (I don't want to have to go around reading choral scores now. :) )

    It's called "Sitivit Anima Mea," and it's the second part of the same psalm. Sicut Cervus is Psalm 42, verse 2. Sitivit Anima Mea is Psalm 42, verses 3-4. It's a continuation of the same psalm.
