    Matin Responsory

    I look from afar: and lo, I see 

    The power of God coming,

    And a cloud covering the whole earth.

    Go ye out to meet him and say:

    Tell us art thou he that should come 

    To reign over thy people Israel?

    High and low, rich and poor, 

    One with another,

    Go ye out to meet him and say:

    Hear, O thou Shepherd of Israel,

    Thou that leadest Joseph like a sheep,

    Tell us, art thou he that should come

    Stir up thy strength, O Lord, and come

    To reign over thy people Israel?

    Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, 

    And to the Holy Ghost.

    I look from afar: and lo, I see 

    The power of God coming

    And a cloud covering the whole earth.

    Go ye out to meet him and say:

    Tell us, art thou he that should come

    To reign over thy people Israel?

     

    Vesper Responsory

    Judah and Jerusalem, 

    Fear not nor be dismayed;

    Tomorrow, go ye forth, 

    And the Lord, he will be with you.

    Stand ye still, and ye shall see 

    The Salvation of the Lord.

    Tomorrow, go ye forth, 

    And the Lord, he will be with you.

    Glory be to the Father and to the Son,

    And to the Holy Ghost.

    Tomorrow, go ye forth, 

    And the Lord, he will be with you.
