Sunday's Psalm--Third Sunday of Advent--(Gaudete Sunday)

 Lord, come and save us.
 Lord, come and save us.

 Lord, come and save us.
.

Lord, come and save us.

from Psalm 146

The third Sunday of Advent is Gaudete Sunday--so called because the introductory prayer of the Mass begins in Latin "Gaudete in Domino semper"--or "Rejoice in the Lord always." Rose colored vestments can be worn instead of purple, and the rose colored candle is lit on the Advent Wreath. The readings of the third Sunday of Advent emphasize the joyous anticipation of the coming of the Lord.
