lyrics

Dominus dixit ad me filius meus es tu: ego hodie genui te.
Quare fremuerunt gentes: et populi meditati sunt inania?
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto: sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper, et in secula seculorum. Amen.

The Lord said to me, Thou art my Son: this day have I begotten thee.
Why do the nations rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and forever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Introit, First Mass at Christmas (Sarum rite); Hebrews 1:5, Psalm 2:1
