Vespers & Great O Antiphon, December 20

December 20 at Vespers – O Clavis David –

O Key of David, and Scepter of the house of Israel,
you open and no one can shut,
you shut and no one can open:
Come and bring the captives out of the prison house,
those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death.

~Magnificat Antiphon
