THE ADVENT PROSE The Advent Prose may be sung in procession before the Introit, or elsewhere in the Mass, on any of the Sundays of Advent. On the Fourth Sunday of Advent, it may replace the Introit.

Rorate, caeli (Is 45:8)

Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.

Be not wroth very sore, O Lord, neither remember iniquity for ever: thy holy cities are a wilderness, Sion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation: our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee.

Drop down, ye heavens...

We have sinned, and are as an unclean thing, and we all do fade as a leaf: our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away; thou hast hid thy face from us: and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.

Drop down, ye heavens...

Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know me and believe me: I, even I, am the Lord, and beside me there is no Saviour: and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.

Drop down, ye heavens...

Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, my salvation shall not tarry: I have blotted out as a thick cloud thy transgressions: fear not for I will save thee: for I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Redeemer.

Drop down, ye heavens...

GLORY. Unto thee...

The Gloria is not said.

Collect

A

LMIGHTY God, give us grace that we may cast away the works of darkness, and put upon us the armour of light, now in the time of this mortal life, in which thy Son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility; that in the last day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty, to judge both the quick and the dead; we may rise to the life immortal; through the same Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

FIRST READING

The Lord will gather all nations in the eternal peace of the Kingdom of God.

A reading from the Book of Isaiah

2:1-5

It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be established as the highest of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all the nations shall flow to it, and many peoples shall come, and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; that he may teach us his ways and that we may walk in his paths.”

O house of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the Lord.

There thrones for judgement were set, the thrones of the house of David. R. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

“May they prosper who love you!

Peace be within your walls, and security within your towers!” R. For my brethren and companions’ sake I will say, “Peace be within you!”

SECOND READING “Salvation is nearer to us now.”

A reading from the Letter of Saint Paul to the Romans

13:11-14a

Brethren: You know what hour it is, how it is full time now for you to wake from sleep.

For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed; the night is far gone, the day is at hand.

Let us then cast off the works of darkness and put on the armour of light; let us conduct ourselves becomingly as in the day, not in revelling and drunkenness, not in debauchery and licentiousness, not in quarrelling and jealousy.

But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh.

The word of the Lord.

✠ A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew

At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, “As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of man.

For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage,

until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they did not know until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of man.

Then two men will be in the field; one is taken and one is left.

Two women will be grinding at the mill; one is taken and one is left.

Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.

But know this, that if the householder had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched and would not have let his house be broken into.

Therefore you also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”

The Gospel of the Lord.

The Creed is said.

Offertory Ad te, Domine, levavi (Ps 25:1,2) Unto thee, O Lord, lift I up my soul; O my God, in thee have I trusted, let me not be confounded: neither let mine enemies triumph over me; for all they that hope in thee shall not be ashamed.

Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his loins.

The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid, and the calf and the lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them.

The cow and the bear shall feed; their young shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

The sucking child shall play over the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den.

SECOND READING Christ saves all men.

A reading from the Letter of Saint Paul to the Romans

15:4-9

Brethren: Whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by steadfastness and by the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Welcome one another, therefore, as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God. For I tell you that Christ became a servant to the circumcised to show God’s truthfulness, in order to confirm the promises given to the patriarchs, and in order that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy.

As it is written, “Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles, and sing to your name.”

For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah when he said, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.”

Now John wore a garment of camel’s hair, and a leather belt around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

Then went out to him Jerusalem and all Judea and all the region about the Jordan, and they were baptised by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers!

Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

Bear fruit that befits repentance, and do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father’;

for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham.

Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

“I baptise you with water for repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry; he will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor and gather his wheat into the granary, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.”

The Gospel of the Lord.

The Creed is said.

RITE OF EUCHARISTIC EXPOSITION AND BENEDICTION The service of Benediction developed during the Middle Ages during the Corpus Christi processions in which the Blessed Sacrament was held up for veneration. The service was subsequently used at other times throughout the year as an opportunity to give thanks for the Mass and adore Christ present under the form of bread.

Today, the Church encourages this rite to be celebrated in the context of a longer period of reading, prayer and reflection.

Exposition First of all, the minister exposes the Blessed Sacrament while a hymn is sung, during which he incenses the Sacrament. The following or another hymn may be chosen.

O saving Victim, opening wide, The gate of heav’n to man below Our foes press on from every side; Thine aid supply, thy strength bestow.

To thy great name be endless praise, Immortal Godhead, One in Three; O grant us endless length of days In our true native land with thee.

Amen.

O salutaris hostia, Quæ cæli pandis ostium; Bella premunt hostilia, Da robur, fer auxilium.

Uni Trinoque Domino Sit sempiterna gloria, Qui vitam sine termino Nobis donet in patria.

Amen.

Adoration A time for silent prayer, readings from Scripture, litanies or other prayers and hymns may be used. On some occasions, the Prayer of the Church might be said or sung.

Of the Glorious Body Telling

Pange Lingua

Of the glorious Body telling, O my tongue, its mysteries sing, And the Blood, all price excelling, Which the world’s eternal King, In a noble womb once dwelling Shed for the world’s ransoming.

Pange lingua gloriosi Corporis mysterium, Sanguinisque pretiosi, Quem in mundi pretium Fructus ventris generosi, Rex effudit gentium.

S tations of the Cross 

STATIONS OF THE CROSS Meditations by Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman Begin with an Act of Contrition

O my God, because you are so good, I am very sorry that I have sinned against you and by the help of your grace I will not sin again.

The First Station Jesus is condemned to Death V. Adoramus te, Christe, V. We adore you, O Christ, et benedicimus tibi. and we bless you.

R. Quia per sanctam crucem tuam R. Because by your holy Cross redemisti mundum. you have redeemed the world.

Leaving the house of Caiaphas, and dragged before Pilate and Herod, mocked, beaten, and spat upon, His back torn with scourges, His head crowned with thorns, Jesus, who on the last day will judge the world, is Himself condemned by unjust judges to a death of ignominy and torture.

Jesus is condemned to death. His death-warrant is signed, and who signed it but I, when I committed my first mortal sins? My first mortal sins, when I fell away from the state of grace into which Thou didst place me by baptism; these it was that were Thy death-warrant, O Lord. The innocent suffered for the guilty. Those sins of mine were the voices which cried out, ‘Let Him be crucified.’ That willingness and delight of heart with which I committed them was the consent which Pilate gave to this clamorous multitude. And the hardness of heart which followed upon them, my disgust, my despair, my proud impatience, my obstinate resolve to sin on, the love of sin which took possession of me – what were these contrary and impetuous feelings but the blows and the blasphemies with which the fierce soldiers and the populace received Thee, thus carrying out the sentence which Pilate had pronounced?

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be to the Father.

V. Have mercy on us, O Lord.

R. Have mercy on us.

V. Miserere nostri, Domine.

R. Miserere nostri.

At the Cross her station keeping, Stood the mournful Mother weeping, Close to Jesus to the last.

Stabat Mater dolorosa, Iuxta crucem lacrimosa, Dum pendebat Filius.
