The Great ‘O’ Antiphons: O Root of Jesse






December 19
O Root of Jesse, standing as an ensign before the peoples, before whom all kings are mute, to whom the nations will do homage: Come quickly to deliver us.

4 O come, O Branch of Jesse's stem,
unto your own and rescue them!
From depths of hell your people save,
and give them victory o'er the grave. Refrain
Refrain:
Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel

shall come to you, O Israel.
