O Oriens
O Rising Dawn
O Oriens, O dawn of the east, brightness of light eternal, and sun of justice;
come and enlighten those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death.

“O Key of David, O royal Power of Israel controlling at your will the gate of Heaven: Come, break down the prison walls of death for those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death; and lead your captive people into freedom.”
O Root of Jesse, you have been raised up as a sign for all peoples; kings stand silent in your presence; the nations bow down in worship before you. Come, let nothing keep you from coming to our aid.
