O Radix Jesse
“O Root of Jesse’s stem, sign of God’s love for all his people: come to save us without delay!”
O Adonai
“O Leader of the House of Israel, giver of the Law to Moses on Sinai: come to rescue us with your mighty power!”
O Sapientia
“O Wisdom of our God Most High, guiding creation with power and love: come to teach us the path of knowledge!”
Now Dismiss [Nunc dimittis] Your Servant in Peace, O LORD
