Chapter 12: The celebration of solemn Lauds

For Lauds on Sunday the sixty sixth psalm should be said first of all straight through without an antiphon. (From Ch. 12 of Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry, OSB, 1997.)

O God, be gracious and bless us/and let your face shed its light upon us (Ps. 66:1-2).  May I live in consciousness of God's grace, blessing and light with each face I see.
