Capitulum Hymnus Versus {ex Proprio Sanctorum}
Isa 60:1
Surge, illuminare Ierusalem, quia venit lumen tuum, et gloria Domini super te orta est.
R. Deo grátias.

Hymnus
O sola magnarum urbium
Maior Bethlem, cui contigit
Ducem salutis caelitus
Incorporatum gignere.

Quem stella, quae solis rotam
Vincit decore, ac lumine;
Venisse terris nuntiat
Cum carne terrestri Deum.

Videre postquam illum Magi,
Eoa promunt munera:
Stratique votis offerunt
Thus, myrrham, et aurum regium.

Regem Deumque annuntiant
Thesaurus, et fragrans odor
Thuris Sabaei, ac myrrheus
Pulvis sepulcrum praedocet.

Iesu, tibi sit gloria,
Qui apparuisti gentibus,
Cum Patre, et almo Spiritu
In sempiterna saecula.
Amen.

V. Adorate Deum, alleluia
R. Omnes Angeli eius, alleluia.

Chapter Hymn Verse {from the Proper of Saints}
Isa 60:1
Arise, be enlightened, O Jerusalem: for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
R. Thanks be to God.

Hymn
Bethlehem, of noblest cities
None can once with thee compare;
Thou alone the Lord from heaven
Didst for us incarnate bear.

Fairer than the sun at morning
Was the star that told His birth;
To the lands their God announcing,
Hid beneath a form of earth.

By its lambent beauty guided,
See, the eastern kings appear;
See them bend, their gifts to offer,
Gifts of incense, gold, and myrrh.

Solemn things of mystic meaning:
Incense doth the God disclose;
Gold a royal child proclaimeth;
Myrrh a future tomb foreshows.

Holy Jesu, in thy brightness
To the Gentile world displayed,
With the Father and the Spirit,
Endless praise to thee be paid.
Amen.

V. Worship God Alleluia.
R. All ye His angels. Alleluia.
