Text: Theophany (Epiphany) of Our Lord - Jordan - First Antiphon

First Antiphon:

When Israel came forth from Egypt,* the house of Jacob from a people of alien tongue.

Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Saviour save us.

Judah became his sanctuary,* Israel his domain.

Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Saviour save us.

The sea beheld and fled,* Jordan turned back.

Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Saviour save us.

Why is it, O sea, that you flee?* O Jordan, that you turn back?

Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Saviour save us.

 

Glory be . . . now and forever . . . : Only Begotten Son . . .

Text: Theophany (Epiphany) of Our Lord - Jordan - O my soul, glorify Christ the King . . .

Instead of ‘It is truly right . . .’:
O my soul, glorify Christ the King*
baptized in the River Jordan.*
No tongue has the power*
to fittingly extol you;*
and even a supernatural mind*
is powerless to glorify you, O Mother of God.*
But in your graciousness, accept our faith*
because you know our holy ambition;*
for you are the protectress of Christians,*
and we extol you.
