On weekdays without their own proper, the Mass takes the Sunday’s prayers.
CollectDec 15, 2023
Aurem tuam, quaesumus, Domine, precibus nostris accommoda: et mentis nostrae tenebras, gratia tuae visitationis illustra.
Literal renderingO Lord, lend your ear to our prayers, we beseech you, and by the grace of your visitation, illuminate the shadows of our mind.
This Sunday’s nickname, “Gaudete” means “Rejoice!” Gaudete, an imperative of gaudeo and the first word of the Introit chant, sets the theme in the Novus Ordo and the older, Traditional Mass: joy. Advent is not strictly a penitential season the way Lent is. Since Advent is about Lord’s Second Coming, not just His joyful First at Bethlehem, we also prepare…

Deus, qui conspicis populum tuum nativitatis dominicae festivitatem fideliter exspectare, praesta, quaesumus, ut valeamus ad tantae salutis gaudia pervenire, et ea votis sollemnibus alacri laetitia celebrare.
Literal renderingO God, who attentively watch Your people look forward faithfully to the feast of the Lord’s birth, grant, we entreat, that we may be able to attain the to joys of so great a salvation and celebrate them with eager jubilation in solemn annual festive rites.
Our rose set for Sung Masses on Gaudete and Laetare when we have an Asperges. DONATE We are coming to the 3rd Sunday of Advent, also nicknamed Gaudete…. the plural imperative of gaudeo, “Rejoice!”, the first word of the Introit chant.

Tuam, Domine, clementiam imploramus, ut haec divina subsidia, a vitiis expiatos, ad festa ventura nos praeparent.
Literal renderingO God, who attentively does watch Your people look forward faithfully to the feast of the Lord’s birth, grant, we entreat, that we may be able to attain to the joys of so great a salvation and celebrate them with eager jubilation in solemn festive rites. ANOTHER VERSION: O God, who look upon your people awaiting in faith the feast of the Lord’s birth, strengthen us, we pray, to reach the joys of so great a salvation, and to celebrate them always with solemn worship and glad rejoicing. ICEL (1973 translation of the 1970MR): Lord God, may we, your people, who look forward to the birthday of Christ experience the joy of salvation and celebrate that feast with love and…

Devotionis nostrae tibi, Domine, quaesumus, hostia iugiter immoletur, quae et sacri peragat instituta mysterii, et salutare tuum nobis potenter operetur.
Literal renderingWe now beg, O Lord, let there be offered up to You continuously the sacrificial victim of our devotion, which may both carry through the actions of the sacred mystery that was instituted, and mightily effect for us Your salvation. ICEL (1973 translation of the 1970MR): Lord, may the gift we offer in faith and love be a continual sacrifice in your honor and truly become our eucharist and our salvation. I guess, you can’t object to what the ICEL prayer says all in all, except for the fact that it doesn’t translate what the Latin really says. Notice that ICEL made Latin devotio, that single-minded dedication, into “faith and love.” They ought to have simply said “devotion”, but that…
