19, December - the Third 'O' Antiphon: O Radix Jesse
The Third day of our journey towards Bethlehem and the first advent of Jesus, the Christ, sees us accompanied on the journey by 'O Radix Jesse':
"O Root of Jesse, Who dost stand for an ensign of the people, before Whom kings shall keep silence, and unto Whom the Gentiles shall make their supplication: come to deliver us, and tarry not."
Words to treasure and a hope to light the day for us.
