Dec. 18 - O Antiphons Day 2 - O Adonai!

 

Day 2 of the O Antiphons - O Adonai!

O come, o come, Thou Lord of might,
who to thy tribes on Sinai's height
in ancient times did give the law,
in cloud, and majesty, and awe.

Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel,
to thee shall come Emmanuel! 

Today we hang the second ornament to O Adonai, (O Lord), as the Advent Season is winding to a close.  We are reminded of God giving the Law to His people.
