Hymnus
Quæ caritátis fúlgidum
es astrum, Virgo, súperis,
spei nobis mortálibus
fons vivax es et prófluus.
Sic vales, celsa Dómina,
in Nati cor piíssimi,
ut qui fidénter póstulat,
per te secúrus ímpetret.
Opem tua benígnitas

sed et libénter sǽpius
precántum vota prǽvenit.
In te misericórdia,
in te magnificéntia;
tu bonitátis cúmulas
quicquid creáta póssident.
Patri sit et Paráclito
tuóque Nato glória,
qui veste te mirábili
circumdedérunt grátiæ. Amen.
Hymn
Mary Immaculate, star of the morning,
  Chosen before the creation began,
Chosen to bring in the light of thy dawning,
  Woe to the serpent and rescue to man.
Here, in this world of both shadow and sadness
  Veiling thy splendour, thy course hast thou run:
Now thou art throned in all glory and gladness,
  Crowned by the hand of thy Saviour and Son.
Sinners, we worship thy sinless perfection;
  Fallen and weak, for thy pity we plead:
Grant us the shield of thy sov’reign protection,
  Measure thine aid by the depth of our need.
Bend from thy throne at the voice of our crying,
  Bend to this earth which thy footsteps have trod:
Stretch out thine arms to us, living and dying,
  Mary Immaculate, Mother of God.

Ps 89:1-17
Sit splendor Domini super nos

Unus dies apud Dominum sicut mille anni, et mille anni sicut dies unus” (2 Petr 3, 8).

Repléti sumus mane misericórdia tua, Dómine.
1Dómine, refúgium factus es nobis*
  a generatióne in generatiónem.
2Priúsquam montes nasceréntur†
  aut gignerétur terra et orbis,*
  a sǽculo et usque in sǽculum tu es Deus.
3Redúcis hóminem in púlverem;*
  et dixísti: «Revertímini, fílii hóminum».
4Quóniam mille anni ante óculos tuos tamquam dies hestérna, quæ prætériit,*
  et custódia in nocte.
5Auferes eos, sómnium erunt:*
  6mane sicut herba succréscens,
mane floret et crescit,*
  véspere décidit et aréscit.
7Quia defécimus in ira tua*
  et in furóre tuo turbáti sumus.
8Posuísti iniquitátes nostras in conspéctu tuo,*
  occúlta nostra in illuminatióne vultus tui.
9Quóniam omnes dies nostri evanuérunt in ira tua,*
  consúmpsimus ut suspírium annos nostros.
10Dies annórum nostrórum sunt septuagínta anni*
  aut in valéntibus octogínta anni,
et maior pars eórum labor et dolor,*
  quóniam cito tránseunt, et avolámus.
11Quis novit potestátem iræ tuæ*
  et secúndum timórem tuum indignatiónem tuam?
12Dinumeráre dies nostros sic doce nos,*
  ut inducámus cor ad sapiéntiam.
13Convértere, Dómine, úsquequo?*
  Et deprecábilis esto super servos tuos.
14Reple nos mane misericórdia tua,*
  et exsultábimus et delectábimur ómnibus diébus nostris.
15Lætífica nos pro diébus, quibus nos humiliásti,*
  pro annis, quibus vídimus mala.
16Appáreat servis tuis opus tuum*
  et decor tuus fíliis eórum.
17Et sit splendor Dómini Dei nostri super nos,†
  et ópera mánuum nostrárum confírma super nos*
  et opus mánuum nostrárum confírma.
Glória Patri et Fílio*
  et Spirítui Sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio et nunc et semper*
  et in sǽcula sæculórum.
Amen.
Repléti sumus mane misericórdia tua, Dómine.

Psalm 89 (90)
Let the Lord's glory shine upon us

In the morning, Lord, you fill us with your love.
Lord, you have been our refuge
  from generation to generation.
Before the mountains were born,
  before earth and heaven were conceived,
  from all time to all time, you are God.
You turn men into dust,
  you say to them “go back, children of men.”
A thousand years in your sight
  are like yesterday, that has passed;
  like a short watch in the night.
When you take them away, they will be nothing but a dream;
  like the grass that sprouts in the morning:
in the morning it grows and flowers,
  in the evening it withers and dries.
For we are made weak by your anger,
  thrown into confusion by your wrath.
You have gazed upon our transgressions;
  the light of your face illuminates our secrets.
All our days vanish in your anger,
  we use up our years in a single breath.
Seventy years are what we have,
  or eighty for the stronger ones;
and most of that is labour and sadness –
  quickly they pass, and we are gone.
Who can comprehend the power of your wrath?
  Who can behold the violence of your anger?
Teach us to reckon our days like this,
  so that our hearts may be led at last to wisdom.
Turn to us, Lord, how long must we wait?
  Let your servants call on you and be answered.
Fill us with your kindness in the morning,
  and we shall rejoice and be glad all the days of our life.
Give us joy for as long as you afflicted us,
  for all the years when we suffered.
Let your servants see your great works,
  and let their children see your glory.
Let the glory of the Lord God be upon us:
  make firm the work of your hands.
  Make firm the work of your hands.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
  and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning,
  is now, and ever shall be,
  world without end.
Amen.
In the morning, Lord, you fill us with your love.

CanticumIs 42:10-16

Hymnus de Deo victore et salvatore

Cantant quasi canticum novum ante thronum” (Ap 14, 3).

Laus Dómini ab extrémis terræ.
10Cantáte Dómino cánticum novum,*
  laus eius ab extrémis terræ;
qui descénditis in mare et plenitúdo eius,*
  ínsulæ et habitatóres eárum.
11Exsúltent desértum et civitátes eius,*
  vici, quos hábitat Cedar.
Iúbilent habitatóres Petræ,*
  de vértice móntium clament.
12Ponant Dómino glóriam*
  et laudem eius in ínsulis núntient.
13Dóminus sicut fortis egrediétur*
  sicut vir prœliátor suscitábit zelum;
vociferábitur et conclamábit,*
  super inimícos suos prævalébit.
«14Tácui semper, sílui, pátiens fui;†
  sicut partúriens ululábo,*
  gemam et fremam simul.
15Desértos fáciam montes et colles*
  et omne gramen eórum exsiccábo;
et ponam flúmina in ínsulas*
  et stagna arefáciam.
16Et ducam cæcos in viam, quam nésciunt,*
  et in sémitis, quas ignoravérunt, ambuláre eos fáciam;
ponam ténebras coram eis in lucem*
  et prava in recta».
Glória Patri et Fílio*
  et Spirítui Sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio et nunc et semper*
  et in sǽcula sæculórum.
Amen.
Laus Dómini ab extrémis terræ.
CanticleIsaiah 42

God, the victor and saviour

Let the praise of the Lord resound from the ends of the earth.
Sing a new song to the Lord:
  sing his praise from the ends of the earth.
Praise him, who go down to the sea;
  and all that are in the sea,
  islands and their inhabitants.
Let the desert rejoice,
  and the cities of the desert,
  the villages where the people of Kedar live.
Let those who dwell in Petra rejoice,
  and cry out from the mountain-tops.
Let them give glory to the Lord,
  and proclaim his praise among the islands.
The Lord will go forth like a warrior,
  like a man of war he will stir up zeal;
  he will shout and cry out;
  he will prevail against his foes.
“I have always been silent,
  I have kept silence and waited;
but now I shall cry out like a woman in labour,
  I shall groan and tremble.
I shall lay waste the mountains and hills,
  I shall wither their grass,
I shall turn rivers into deserts,
  I shall dry up the marshes.
I shall lead the blind along a way they do not know;
  in paths unknown to them I shall make them walk.
I shall make the darkness that is around them into light.
I shall make crooked things straight.”
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
  and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning,
  is now, and ever shall be,
  world without end.
Amen.
Let the praise of the Lord resound from the ends of the earth.

Ps 134:1-12
Laus Domini mirabilia operantis

Populus in acquisitionem ... annuntiate virtutes eius qui de tenebris vos vocavit in admirabile lumen suum” (Cf. 1 Petr 2, 9).

Laudáte nomen Dómini, qui statis in domo Dómini.
1Laudáte nomen Dómini,*
  laudáte, servi Dómini,
2qui statis in domo Dómini,*
  in átriis domus Dei nostri.
3Laudáte Dóminum, quia bonus Dóminus;*
  psállite nómini eius, quóniam suáve.
4Quóniam Iacob elégit sibi Dóminus,*
  Israel in pecúlium sibi.
5Quia ego cognóvi quod magnus est Dóminus*
  et Deus noster præ ómnibus diis.
6Omnia, quæcúmque vóluit,†
  Dóminus fecit in cælo et in terra,*
  in mari et in ómnibus abýssis.
7Addúcens nubes ab extrémo terræ,†
  fúlgura in plúviam facit,*
  prodúcit ventos de thesáuris suis.
8Qui percússit primogénita Ægýpti*
  ab hómine usque ad pecus.
9Misit signa et prodígia in médio tui, Ægýpte,*
  in pharaónem et in omnes servos eius.
10Qui percússit gentes multas*
  et occídit reges fortes:
11Sehon regem Amorræórum et Og regem Basan*
  et ómnia regna Chánaan.
12Et dedit terram eórum hereditátem,*
  hereditátem Israel pópulo suo.
Glória Patri et Fílio*
  et Spirítui Sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio et nunc et semper*
  et in sǽcula sæculórum.
Amen.
Laudáte nomen Dómini, qui statis in domo Dómini.

Psalm 134 (135)
Praise the Lord, the wonder-worker

Praise the name of the Lord, you who stand in the house of the Lord.
Praise the name of the Lord:
  praise it, servants of the Lord,
you who stand in the house of the Lord,
  in the courts of the house of our God.
Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good;
  sing to his name, for it brings happiness.
For the Lord chose Jacob for his own,
  he chose Israel for his possession.
I know how great is the Lord,
  how great is our God above all gods.
The Lord accomplishes all that he wills,
  in the heavens and on the earth,
  in the sea and the depths of the oceans.
He brings in clouds from the ends of the earth,
  makes lightning for the rain-clouds,
  from his storehouse he calls forth the winds.
He struck down the first-born of Egypt,
  of man and of beast alike.
He sent signs and wonders among them,
  to Pharaoh and all his servants.
He shattered nation after nation,
  killed powerful kings:
Sihon, king of the Amorites,
  Og, the king of Bashan,
  all the kingdoms of Canaan.
He gave their lands as a birthright,
  as a birthright for Israel his people.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
  and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning,
  is now, and ever shall be,
  world without end.
Amen.
Praise the name of the Lord, you who stand in the house of the Lord.

Scripture Reading(Isaiah 61:10) ©

De Messia eiusque præcursore

Paradísi porta per Evam cunctis clausa est, et per Maríam Vírginem patefácta est.
Benedíctus Dóminus Deus Israel,*
  quia visitávit et fecit redemptiónem plebi suæ
et eréxit cornu salútis nobis*
  in domo David púeri sui,
sicut locútus est per os sanctórum,*
  qui a sæculo sunt, prophetárum eius,

  præíbis enim ante fáciem Dómini paráre vias eius,
ad dandam sciéntiam salútis plebi eius*
  in remissiónem peccatórum eórum,
per víscera misericórdiæ Dei nostri,*
  in quibus visitábit nos óriens ex alto,
illumináre his, qui in ténebris et in umbra mortis sedent*
  ad dirigéndos pedes nostros in viam pacis.
Glória Patri et Fílio*

CanticleBenedictus

The Messiah and his forerunner

They all joined together in constant prayer, with Mary the mother of Jesus.
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
  for he has come to his people and brought about their redemption.
He has raised up the sign of salvation
  in the house of his servant David,
as he promised through the mouth of the holy ones,
  his prophets through the ages:
to rescue us from our enemies
  and all who hate us,
to take pity on our fathers,
  to remember his holy covenant
and the oath he swore to Abraham our father,
  that he would give himself to us,
that we could serve him without fear
 – freed from the hands of our enemies –
in uprightness and holiness before him,
  for all of our days.
And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High:
  for you will go before the face of the Lord to prepare his path,
to let his people know their salvation,
  so that their sins may be forgiven.
Through the bottomless mercy of our God,
  one born on high will visit us
to give light to those who walk in darkness,
  who live in the shadow of death;
  to lead our feet in the path of peace.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
  and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning,
  is now, and ever shall be,
  world without end.
Amen.
They all joined together in constant prayer, with Mary the mother of Jesus.

Lord, may your mother pray for us.
Sun of justice, you showed your day was dawning in the immaculate Virgin Mary;
  help us to walk in the daylight of your presence.

  let us be known as her children by our way of living.

Our Father, who art in heaven,
  hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
  Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
  and forgive us our trespasses,
  as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
  but deliver us from evil.

Matrem quoque nostram constítuit,

Ecclésia tua, in dies fecúndior, prolis sanctitáte exsúltet
et in grémium suum cunctas áttrahat famílias populórum.

your Church may be more fruitful day by day,
and exulting in the holiness of her children,
may draw to her embrace all the families of the peoples.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
