ENTRANCE ANTIPHON:
O people of Zion, behold, the Lord will come to save the nations,
and the Lord will make the glory of his voice heard in the joy of your heart.
FIRST READING: Baruch 5:1-9.
RESPONSORIAL PSALM: Psalm 126.
RESPONSE:
What great deeds the Lord has worked for us!
Indeed, we were glad.
1. When the Lord brought back the exiles of Sion,
we thought we were dreaming.
Then was our mouth filled with laughter,
on our tongues, songs of joy. ℟
2. Then the nations themselves said, ‘What great deeds
the Lord worked for them!’
What great deeds the Lord worked for us!
Indeed, we were glad. ℟
3. Bring back our exiles, O Lord,
as streams in the south.
Those who are sowing in tears
will sing when they reap. ℟
4. They go out, they go out, full of tears,
bearing seed for the sowing;
they come back, they come back with a song,
bearing their sheaves. ℟
SECOND READING: Philippians 1:4-6, 8-11.
GOSPEL ACCLAMATION:
Alleluia, alleluia!
Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight;
all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Alleluia.
GOSPEL: Luke 3:1-6.
COMMUNION ANTIPHON:
Jerusalem, arise and stand upon the heights,
and behold the joy which comes to you from God.
SPIRITUAL COMMUNION PRAYER:
My Jesus,
I believe that you are present
in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You in my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
