Daily Prayer
Holy Family
Antiphon (mantra) repeat quietly:
Ring out your joy with full voice, you holy ones; true hearts are made for praise.
Psalm 97
God is eternal! Let earth rejoice;
let distant shores and isles be glad.
The Holy One is clothed in glory,
set firm in justice and truth.
A fire prepares God's path.
The enemy is consumed on every side.
The world is ablaze with light.
The earth trembles at the sight.
The mountains melt like wax
in the presence of the Holy One.
The skies proclaim justice;
the glory of God is seen by all.
Let those who trust in lifeless gods be confounded
and those who worship idols be ashamed.
All of Zion rejoices
because God judges with justice.
God indeed is the source of joy
and is exalted over all the earth.
God loves those who hate evil
and embraces all the faithful.
Light shines forth for the just
and gladness for those who speak truth.
They are set free from the wicked
and give glory to the holy name.
Pray the Prayer of Jesus (Our Father)
