O Clavis David

This means: O Key of David. It is a title for the Messiah from the Old Testament. It is the O Antiphon for today. Here is the Full Antiphon. Use it in your prayer today:


O Key of David and sceptre of the House of Israel;
you open and no one can shut;
you shut and no one can open:
Come and lead the prisoners from the prison house,
those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death.
