O Antiphon for December 22
O King of the Gentiles and the Desired of them,
Thou Cornerstone that dost make both one,
come and deliver man,
whom Thou didst form out of the dust of the earth.
O Rex Gentium,
et desideratus earum,
lapisque angularis,
qui facis utraque unum:
veni,
et salva hominem,
quem de limo formasti.
