Lord, open my lips.

– And my mouth will proclaim your praise.


Ant. Christ has appeared to us; come, let us adore him.


Psalm 95


Come, let us sing to the Lord

and shout with joy to the Rock who saves us.

Let us approach him with praise and thanksgiving

and sing joyful songs to the Lord.


Ant. Christ has appeared to us; come, let us adore him.


The Lord is God, the mighty God,

the great king over all the gods.

He holds in his hands the depths of the earth

and the highest mountains as well

He made the sea; it belongs to him,

the dry land, too, for it was formed by his hands.


Ant. Christ has appeared to us; come, let us adore him.


Come, then, let us bow down and worship,

bending the knee before the Lord, our maker,

For he is our God and we are his people,

the flock he shepherds.


Ant. Christ has appeared to us; come, let us adore him.


Today, listen to the voice of the Lord:

Do not grow stubborn, as your fathers did

in the wilderness,

when at Meriba and Massah

they challenged me and provoked me,

Although they had seen all of my works.


Ant. Christ has appeared to us; come, let us adore him.


Forty years I endured that generation.

I said, “They are a people whose hearts go astray

and they do not know my ways.”

So I swore in my anger,

“They shall not enter into my rest.”


Ant. Christ has appeared to us; come, let us adore him.


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.


Ant. Christ has appeared to us; come, let us adore him.
