Præfátio de Adventu

Præfátio de Adventu
Pro aliquibus locis: Præfatio de Adventu dicitur a) tamquam propria in Missis de Tempore a dominica I Adventus usque ad vigiliam Nativitatis Dómini inclusive; b) tamquam de Tempore in ceteris Missis quæ celebrantur eodem tempore, et præfatione propria carent.

[P] Per ómnia sæcula sæculórum. [C] Amen. [P] Dóminus vobíscum. [C] Et cum spíritu tuo. [P] Sursum corda. [C] Habémus ad Dóminum. [P] Grátias agámus Dómino Deo nostro. [C] Dignum et iustum est.	[P] World without end. [C] Amen. [P] The Lord be with you [C] And with thy spirit. [P] Lift up your hearts. [C] We have lifted them up to the Lord. [P] Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. [C] It is meet and just.
Vere dignum et iustum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine, sancte Pater, omnípotens ætérne Deus: Quem pérdito hóminum géneri Salvatórem miséricors et fidélis promisísti: cujus véritas instrúeret ínscios, sánctitas justificáret ímpios, virtus adjuváret infirmos. Dum ergo prope est ut véniat quem missúrus es, et dies affúlget liberatiónes nostræ, in hac promissiónem tuárum fide, piis gáudiis exsultámus. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus, cumque omni milítia cæléstis exércitus, hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:	It is truly meet and just, right and availing unto salvation, that we should in all times and in all places give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty and everlasting God. Who at the loss of the human generation didst mercifully and faithfully promise the Savior: Whose truth would instruct the ignorant, Whose holiness would justify the impious, Whose strength would support the frail. Now, therefore, as it is soon that He shall come Whom Thou dost send, and the days of our liberation shall shine forth, in this Thy holy promise, we rejoice in holy exaltation. And therefore with angels and archangels, with thrones and dominions, and with all the heavenly hosts, we sing a hymn to Thy glory, saying without ceasing:
[Omnes] Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dóminus Deus Sábaoth. Pleni sunt cæli et terra glória tua. Hosánna in excélsis. Benedíctus + qui venit in nómine Dómini. Hosánna in excélsis.	[All] Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of hosts. Heaven and earth are filled with Thy glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed + is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.
