HYMN O Lavish Giver of the Light That bathes the world in dawning glow; The daylight cheers our hearts again When somber hours of night have past. You are the world's true Morning Star, Compared with whom the eager gleam That heralds in the dawning light It's but a timid, narrow ray. True Light itself, Eternal Day You are far brighter than the sun, Illuminating with your grace, The deep recesses of each heart. And may our purity of mind. Suppress what lower nature claims, So that our bodies too may be The Holy Spirit's spotless shrine. Jesus, to you beneath whose sway, All earth shall bow, all praise we pray; With Father and with Spirit be All glory yours eternally. Amen. ?"O Lavish Giver of the Light" by Kathleen Lundquist • Title: O Lavish Giver of the Light; Text: Lucis largitor splendide, Ante 6th c. ; Translation: St. Cecilia's Abbey, Ryde, Isle of Wight, UK; Tune: Chant, Mode VIII; Lumen Christi Hymnal; Artist: Kathleen Lundquist; Recording copyright 2016 by Surgeworks, Inc. PSALMODY Ant. 1 Each morning, Lord, you fill us with your kindness. Psalm 90 May we live in the radiance of God There is no time with God: a thousand years, a single day, it is all one (2 Peter 3:8 ). O Lord, you have been our refuge from one generation to the next. Before the mountains were born or the earth or the world brought forth, you are God, without beginning or end. You turn men back to dust and say: “Go back, sons of men.” To your eyes a thousand years are like yesterday, come and gone, no more than a watch in the night. You sweep men away like a dream, like grass which springs up in the morning. In the morning it springs up and flowers: by evening it withers and fades. So we are destroyed in your anger, struck with terror in your fury. Our guilt lies open before you; our secrets in the light of your face. All our days pass away in your anger. Our life is over like a sigh. Our span is seventy years or eighty for those who are strong. And most of these are emptiness and pain. They pass swiftly and we are gone. Who understands the power of your anger and fears the strength of your fury? Make us know the shortness of our life that we may gain wisdom of heart. Lord, relent! Is your anger for ever? Show pity to your servants. In the morning, fill us with your love; we shall exult and rejoice all our days. Give us joy to balance our affliction for the years when we knew misfortune. Show forth your work to your servants; let your glory shine on their children. Let the favor of the Lord be upon us: give success to the work of our hands, give success to the work of our hands. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: — as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. Psalm-prayer Lord, send your mercy and your truth to rescue us from the snares of the devil, and, happy to be known as companions of your Son, we will praise you among the peoples and proclaim you to the nations. Ant. Each morning, Lord, you fill us with your kindness. Ant. 2 From the farthest bounds of earth, may God be praised! Canticle – Isaiah 42:10 -16 God victor and savior They were singing a new hymn before the throne of God (Revelation 14:3 ). Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the end of the earth: Let the sea and what fills it resound, the coastlands, and those who dwell in them. Let the steppe and its cities cry out, the villages where Kedar dwells; Let the inhabitants of Sela exult, and shout fr [...]
