 “Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It’s the transition that’s troublesome.” ― Isaac Asimov

Deus vult (Ecclesiastical Latin: 'God wills it') is a Christian motto relating to Divine providence. It was first chanted by Catholics during the First Crusade in 1096 as a rallying cry, most likely under the form Deus le veult or Deus lo vult, as reported by the Gesta Francorum (ca. 1100) and the Historia Belli Sacri (ca. 1130). In modern times, the Latin motto has different meanings depending on the context. It has been used as a metaphor referring to "God's will" by Christians throughout history, such as the Puritans, or as a motto by chivalric orders such as the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem.

Non, nobis, Domine, non nobis, Sed nomini tuo da gloriam. 

Translated as. . . 

Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to thy name give the glory.
