In Vigilia Nativitatis Domini - Sext Brief Responsory

About This Prayer

Sext's brief responsory expands "Crastina die" (Tomorrow): iniquity's deletion and the Saviour's reign. The noon hour's responsory maintains Vigil tension between present sin and imminent salvation. The Lord God of hosts speaks through this text.
