The text can be found here:http://www.choralarts.org/data/files/community/rachmaninoff%20vespers%20transliteration%20translation%20formatted.pdf
Here is a part of it (It is sung in Russian---all the words are very beautiful so to see them all go to the link:
Amen.
O come, let us worship before the Lord our Maker.
O come, let us worship and fall down
before the Lord Christ, our God and Maker.
O come, let us worship and fall down
and kneel before the Very Christ,
our God and Maker.
O come, let us worship and fall down before Him
Amen.
Bless thou the Lord, O my soul.
Blessed art thou, O Lord my God.
O Lord my God, thou art become exceedingly glorious.
Blessed art thou, O Lord my God.
Thou art clothed with majesty and honor.
Blessed art thou, O Lord my God.
The waters stood above the mountains.
Marvelous are thy works, O Lord.
Among the hills flow the waters.
Marvelous are thy works, O Lord.
In wisdom hast thou made them all.
Glory to thee O Lord, who has made them all
Blessed is the man that hath not walked
in the counsel of the ungodly. Alleluia!
For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous,
but the way of the ungodly shall perish. Alleluia!
Serve the Lord with fear,
and rejoice unto him with reverence. Alleluia!
Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
Alleluia!
Arise, O Lord; save me, O Lord my God. Alleluia!
Salvation belongeth unto the Lord,
and thy blessing is upon thy people. Alleluia!
Glory be to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
both now and ever and to ages and ages, amen.
Alleluia!
Glory be to thee O God. Alleluia!
