Let us go then to Bethlehem,

O Lord, hear my prayer,
O Lord, hear my prayer:

The Lord is my praise:
God, the well-spring of life.

BENEDICTION

Tantum ergo Sacraméntum
Venerémur cérnui:
Et antiquum documéntum
Novo cedat ritui:
Praestet fides suppleméntum
Sénsuum deféctui.

Genitóri, Genitóque
Laus et iubilátio,
Salus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedíctio:
Procedénti ab utróque
Compar sit laudátio.

Down in adoration falling,
This great sacrament we hail;
Over ancient forms departing,
Newer rites of grace prevail;
Faith for all defects supplying
Where the feeble senses fail.

To the everlasting Father,
And the Son who reigns on high,
With the Spirit blest proceeding
Forth from each eternally,
Be salvation, honor, blessing,
Might and endless majesty.

CLOSING HYMN

Prepare the way of the Lord.
Prepare the way of the Lord,
and all people will see the salvation of our God.
