Strongly typed resources from database

I have created my own DBResourceProvider which gets texts from a database in a given language. I can set a label problematically by writing

Label1.Text = Text.Slogan;

In the webpage itself I can write

<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="<%$ Resources:MyDbResource, Slogan %>"></asp:Label>

I am trying to figure out a way that I can have that last line of code strongly typed. Is that even possible?

UPDATE:

I generate this code to access the resources:

 public static String Slogan { get{return getText("Slogan") ;} }

And this is my getText method:

public static string getText(string key)
{
    return HttpContext.GetGlobalResourceObject("Global", key).ToString();   
}

If you think I included to little of my code here, give me a comment and I'll bring more code to the table!

In your .aspx file just write:

<html>
<title></title>
<body>
    Our slogan is: <%= Text.Slogan %>
</body>
</html>
