LESSON Isa. 60.1-6
ARISE, be enlightened, O Jerusalem: for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For behold darkness shall cover the earth, and a mist the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall walk in thy light, and kings in the brightness of thy rising. Lift up thy eyes round about and see: all these are gathered together: they are come to thee: thy sons shall come from afar, and thy daugh-ters shall rise up at thy side. Then shalt thou see and abound, and thy heart shall wonder and be enlarged, when the multitude of the sea shall be converted to thee, the strenth of the Gentiles shall come to thee. The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Madian and Epha: all they from Saba shall come, bringing gold and frankincense and showing forth their praise to the Lord.
GRADUAL Isa. 60.6,1
All they from Saba shall come, bringing gold and frankincense and showing forth praise to the Lord. V.: Arise and be enlightened, O Jerusalem: for the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
Alleluia, alleluia. V.: We have seen his star in the East, and are come with gifts to adore the Lord. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John (1.29-34)
AT that time John saw Jesus coming to him, and he saith: Behold the Lamb of God, behold him who taketh away the sin of the world. This is he, of whom I said: After me there cometh a man, who is preferred before me: because he was before me. And I knew him not, but that he may be made manifest in Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water. And John gave testimony, saying: I saw the Spirit coming down, as a dove from heaven, and he remained upon him. And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize with water, said to me: He upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining upon him, He it is that baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. And I saw, and I gave testimony, that this is the Son of God. The Creed is said.
OFFERTORY Ps. 71. 10, 11
The kings of Tharsis and the is-lands shall offer presents: the kings of the Arabians and of Saba shall bring gifts: and all kings of the earth shall adore him: all nations shall serve him.
SECRET
LOOK graciously, we beseech thee, O Lord, upon the offering of thy Church, in which gold, frankincense, and myrrh are no longer offered: but he, who by these same gifts was signified, is sacrificed and received, even Jesus Christ, thy Son, our Lord, who.
