O Antiphons

Dec. 17 begins a new time of special preparation during Advent. We begin the O Antiphons. These are liturgical antiphons based on titles for Jesus Christ from the Old Testament. These are also the verses for the song  "O come, O come Emmanuel". Today the Title is O Sapientia (O Wisdom).

The Full Antiphon for today is:

O Wisdom, coming forth from the mouth of the Most High,reaching from one end to the other mightily,and sweetly ordering all things:Come and teach us the way of prudence.
