Ætérna Christi múnera
et mártyrum victórias,
laudes feréntes débitas,
lætis canámus méntibus.
Ecclesiárum príncipes,
belli triumpháles duces,
cæléstis aulæ mílites
et vera mundi lúmina.
Terróre victo sǽculi
pœnísque spretis córporis,
mortis sacræ compéndio
lucem beátam póssident.
Tortóris insáni manu
sanguis sacrátus fúnditur,
sed pérmanent immóbiles
vitæ perénnis grátia.
Devóta sanctórum fides,
invícta spes credéntium,
perfécta Christi cáritas
mundi triúmphat príncipem.
In his patérna glória,
in his volúntas Spíritus,
exsúltat in his Fílius,
cælum replétur gáudio.
Te nunc, Redémptor, quǽsumus,
ut mártyrum consórtio
iungas precántes sérvulos
in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.

All hail the power of Jesus’ name;
Let Angels prostrate fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem
To crown him Lord of all.
Crown him, ye Martyrs of your God,
Who from his altar call;
Praise him whose way of pain ye trod,
And crown him Lord of all.
Hail him, ye heirs of David’s line,
Whom David Lord did call;
The God Incarnate, Man Divine,
And crown him Lord of all.
Let every tribe and every tongue
To him their hearts enthral,
Lift high the universal song,
And crown him Lord of all.

Thanksgiving for the freeing of the peopleJerusalem, city of God, you will be radiant with light. Alleluia.
Bless the Lord, his chosen ones: all of you, praise his greatness.
Keep feast-days of rejoicing and proclaim his holy name.
Jerusalem, holy city: he will punish you for what you have done.
Thank the Lord for his good deeds, and bless the eternal king,
so that in you, once more, with gladness, your tabernacle may be built,
so that in you he may make all exiles rejoice,
so that in you he may care for the distressed
for all ages, for ever.
Your bright light will shine out to the ends of the earth:
many nations will come to you from afar.
From the farthest corners of the world they will come to your holy name
carrying gifts in their hands for the King of heaven.
Generation on generation, they will proclaim their joy
and the name of the chosen city will endure for ever.
So rejoice and be glad among the children of the just,
for they will be brought together and bless the eternal Lord.
Happy are those who love you, fortunate those who rejoice in your peace.
My soul, bless the Lord, the great King,
for in Jerusalem his house will be built,
to stand for ever.
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.
Jerusalem, city of God, you will be radiant with light. Alleluia.

Ps 147:12-20
| Psalm 147 (147B)
|
Hæc est cáritas Dei, ut mandáta eius servémus; et mandáta eius grávia non sunt, quóniam omne, quod natum est ex Deo, vincit mundum; et hæc est victória, quæ vicit mundum: fides nostra. Quis est qui vincit mundum, nisi qui credit quóniam Iesus est Fílius Dei?
|
This is what loving God is – keeping his commandments;
and his commandments are not difficult,
because anyone who has been begotten by God
has already overcome the world.
This is the victory over the world – our faith.
Who can overcome the world?
Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

℣. Lætítia sempitérna super cápita eórum, * Allelúia, allelúia. Lætítia.
℟. Gáudium et exsultatiónem obtinébunt,* Allelúia, allelúia. Glória Patri. Lætítia.
|
Everlasting joy shall be in their faces. Alleluia, alleluia.
– Everlasting joy shall be in their faces. Alleluia, alleluia.
Joy and gladness will go with them.
– Everlasting joy shall be in their faces. Alleluia, alleluia.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
– Everlasting joy shall be in their faces. Alleluia, alleluia.

De Messia eiusque præcursoreGaudéte et exsultáte, omnes sancti, quóniam merces vestra copiósa est in cælis, allelúia.
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,
salútem ex inimícis nostris*
et de manu ómnium, qui odérunt nos;
ad faciéndam misericórdiam cum pátribus nostris*
et memorári testaménti sui sancti,
iusiurándum, quod iurávit ad Abraham patrem nostrum,*
datúrum se nobis,
ut sine timóre, de manu inimicórum liberáti,*
serviámus illi
in sanctitáte et iustítia coram ipso*
ómnibus diébus nostris.
Et tu, puer, prophéta Altíssimi vocáberis:*
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*
et Spirítui Sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio et nunc et semper*
et in sǽcula sæculórum.
Amen.
Gaudéte et exsultáte, omnes sancti, quóniam merces vestra copiósa est in cælis, allelúia.

The Messiah and his forerunnerRejoice, all you saints, and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, alleluia.
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.
Rejoice, all you saints, and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, alleluia.
