Well, yesterday (whatever day that was) got away from me, so here's Day 6 of the O Antiphons: O Rex Gentium (O King of the Nations). I'm just sneaking it into Matins instead of last night's Vespers. (Day 7 to follow later.) #OAntiphons

Day 3 of the O Antiphons: O Radix Jesse (O Root of Jesse). More information on the prayers (there's a cool acrostic that they form: "ero cras". meaning "I will be there tomorrow") https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_Antiphons #OAntiphons

Day 2 of the O Antiphons: O Adonai. It's a very old Advent practice, and these prayers are to be said at Vespers, so evening is the "right" time for them. More about the practice, if you haven't encountered it before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_Antiphons #OAntiphons

Today is the first day of the O Antiphons, a very old Advent prayer practice. I thought it would be fun to share them, so here is the first one, O Sapientia (O Wisdom). More info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_Antiphons and I'll try to post the next ones earlier in the evening! #OAntiphons

Last year I wrote a poem based on the Great O Antiphons of the final week before Christmas. I've been captivated by these for many years, and observing them #OAntiphons each year is a highlight of #Advent for me.
You can see the poem here: https://youtu.be/gH2_NXQHE94?feature=shared. Hope you enjoy!

O Virgo virginum, quomodo fiet istud?
Quia nec primam similem visa es nec habere sequentem.
Filiæ Jerusalem, quid me admiramini?
Divinum est mysterium hoc quod cernitis.
