Processional Hymn

Introit (Sung by Choir) Isaiah 9: 5 Puer natus est nobis, et filius datus est nobis, cujus imperium super humerum ejus et vocabitur nomen ejus, magni consilii Angelus. Cantate Domino canticum novum quia mirabilia fecit. Glória Pátri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sáncto. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in saécula saeculórum. Amen.

A child is born to us, and a Son is given to us: Whose government is upon His shoulder: and His Name shall be called the Angel of Great Counsel. Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: because He hath done wonderful things. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, World without end. Amen.

Videamus multitudinem militiae celestis laudantium Deum, Mariam et Joseph et Infantem positum in praesipio Transeamus et videamus quod factum est.
