Lyrics: Anon

Rorate cæli desuper
et nubes pluant justum:
aperiatur terra
et germinet salvatorem.
Benedixisti, Domine, terram tuam:
avertisti captivitatem Jacob.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto:
Sicut erat in pricipio et nunc et semper,
et in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.

Drop down, ye heavens, from above,
and let the skies pour down righteousness:
let the earth open,
and let it bring forth a saviour.
Lord, thou art become gracious unto thy land:
thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost:
As it was in the beginning, is now,and ever shall be:
world without end. Amen.
