O Magnum Mysterium

For your Advent, pre-Christmas reflection… the text from Matins of Christmas.

Think about this for the next month, in the version by Lauridsen, sung about as well as you might hear it sung.

O magnum mysterium,
et admirabile sacramentum,
ut animalia viderent Dominum natum,
jacentem in praesepio!
Beata Virgo, cujus viscera
meruerunt portare
Dominum Christum.
Alleluia.
