O Oriens

O Radiant Dawn, a setting by James MacMillan of today's antiphon: 

O Radiant Dawn, splendor of eternal light, 
Sun of justice:
Come, shine on those who dwell in darkness
and the shadow of death.
The people who walk in darkness have seen a great light
For those who dwell in the land of gloom, a light has come
Come, shine on those who dwell in darkness
and the shadow of death.




O Oriens, 
splendor lucis æternæ, et sol justitiæ: 
veni, et illumina sedentes in tenebris, 
et umbra mortis.
