Let us turn to the light

Today is my favorite day of the year -- the days start getting longer.

The O Antiphon for today (for those of you who are observing Advent) echoes the season.

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

[O dawn of the east, brightness of light eternal, and sun of justice: come, and enlighten those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death.]
