Communion antiphon for 4th Sunday of Advent.

I recorded this today for those of you who have to listen to Haugen/Haas et al.

Ecce Virgo

Behold, the virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Emmanuel.

1. The heavens show forth the glory of God, and the firmament declareth the work of his hands.
2. Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night showest knowledge.
3. There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.
4. Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.
5. He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber, hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way.
6. His going out is from the end of heaven, and his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.

Mary, from which Order of the Angels do you originate? Many, many thanks for this. Going to download it on desktop and listen regularly.

A blessed Christmas to you and yours.

TH2: I am humbled by your undeserved praise. I'm glad you liked it.

Likewise, I wish you a very Happy and Blessed Christmas.

Hey TH2, it occurs to me that since you've downloaded my recording, I'm now an International Recording Artist. I'll add it to my resume.
