Liturgical materials for All Saints
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: Breviary antiphons

Antiphon on the Benedictus: The glorious choir of the Apostles, the admirable company of the Prophets, the white-robed Army of Martyrs, praise you. All the Saints and elect, with one voice, do acknowledge you, O blessed Trinity, one God. 

Antiphon on the Magnificat: O how glorious is the kingdom wherein all the Saints rejoice with Christ; clothed in white robes, they follow the Lamb wheresoever he goes!

Responsory (between the first and second Lessons): Be glad, you righteous, and rejoice in the Lord. [repeated] And be joyful, all you who are true of heart and rejoice in the Lord. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.  Be glad, you righteous, and rejoice in the Lord.

[Sources: The antiphons are from The Roman Breviary, published by Benziger Brothers, 1964. The responsory is adapted from The Monastic Diurnal, edited by Canon W. Douglas, published by Oxford U.P., in 1940.]
