Anthem

One day of the ages,
There was a flash
Born from the end of time,
The big message
From heaven to all the angels:
God was going to take flesh.

No one surprised
On higher heights
The emissary of glory,
He went down
In the course of history:
Nothing seemed to have changed.

He approached
Of the secrets of life
That God reserved;
The angel touched
The one who kept it
And the shadow quivered.

On that day,
If there was only one flesh
To receive the dawn,
Everywhere went up
The hope of uniting
Finally in the light.

Intercession

Eternal Word, in these times which are the last, you took our nature, make our life a walk towards the kingdom of Heaven.

 Come, Lord Jesus!

True light, which enlightens every man in this world,
– dispels the darkness of our ignorance.

only begotten Son, who art in the bosom of the Father,
– give us to understand
how much God loves us.

Christ Jesus, born as a man among men,
– conform us to your image
to make us children of God.

You who break down the doors of our prisons,
– welcomes to the wedding feast
those who beg their bread at your door.

For centuries and centuries !

Marian Antiphon

Holy Mother of our Redeemer,
Heaven’s door, always open,
star of the sea,
Come to the aid of the people who fall
and trying to get up.
You gave birth, oh wonder!
the one who created you,
and you still remain a virgin.
Welcome the greeting of the angel Gabriel
and have mercy on us sinners.
