O Antiphon text:
O Key of David,
and scepter of the house of Israel,
who opens and no man shuts,
who shuts and no man opens:
come, and lead forth the captive
who sits in the shadows from his prison.
Reflection:
O Key of David,
Who through your gift of the priesthood
Reigns today and is the only key.
Reigns today and is the only key.
In the gift of your priesthood,
We experience your mercy and forgiveness.
As we celebrate the wondrous Sacrament of Reconciliation.
We know that it is You who opens and no man may shut
And who shuts that no man may open:
We experience your mercy and forgiveness.
As we celebrate the wondrous Sacrament of Reconciliation.
We know that it is You who opens and no man may shut
And who shuts that no man may open:
Come, Lord,
And loosen the shackles,
With which we bind ourselves
And lead us through
Your open door.
With which we bind ourselves
And lead us through
Your open door.
