PSALMODY Ant. 1 Lord, our God, in splendor and majesty you are clothed, wrapped in light as in a robe, alleluia. Psalm 104 Hymn to God the Creator To be in Christ means being a completely new creature. Everything of the old is gone, now everything is made anew (2 Corinthians 5:17). I Bless the Lord, my soul! Lord God, how great you are, clothed in majesty and glory, wrapped in light as in a robe! Ant. Lord, our God, in splendor and majesty you are clothed, wrapped in light as in a robe, alleluia. You stretch out the heavens like a tent. Above the rains you build your dwelling. You make the clouds your chariot, and walk on the wings of the wind, you make the winds your messengers and flashing fire your servants. Ant. Lord, our God, in splendor and majesty you are clothed, wrapped in light as in a robe, alleluia. You founded the earth on its base, to stand firm from age to age. You wrapped it with the ocean like a cloak: the waters stood higher than the mountains. Ant. Lord, our God, in splendor and majesty you are clothed, wrapped in light as in a robe, alleluia.

Ant. 2 The Lord has brought forth bread from the earth, and wine to give warmth to men’s hearts, alleluia. II From your dwelling you water the hills; earth drinks its fill of your gift. You make the grass grow for the cattle and the plants to serve man’s needs, that he may bring forth bread from the earth and wine to cheer man’s heart; oil, to make him glad and bread to strengthen man’s heart. Ant. The Lord has brought forth bread from the earth, and wine to give warmth to men’s hearts, alleluia. The trees of the Lord drink their fill, the cedars he planted on Lebanon; there the birds build their nests; on the treetop the stork has her home. The goats find a home on the mountains and rabbits hide in the rocks. Ant. The Lord has brought forth bread from the earth, and wine to give warmth to men’s hearts, alleluia. You made the moon to mark the months;
