\"Adoration<\/a><\/span>
\nThe Feast That Came Back<\/strong>
\nThe feast of the Most Holy Name of Jesus, established by Pope Innocent XIII in 1721, disappeared (along with a lot of other things) from the Roman Missal of 1970, and was happily restored to the third typical edition of the Roman Missal by the Servant of God Pope John Paul II in 2002.<\/p>\n

Ant. ad introitum<\/strong>
\n(Ph 2,10-11)
\nIn nómine Iesu omne genu flectátur, caeléstium, terréstrium et infernórum; et omnis língua confiteátur quia Dóminus Iesus Christus in glória est Dei Patris.
\nCollecta<\/strong>
\nDeus, qui salútem humáni géneris in Verbi tui incarnatióne fundásti, da pópulis tuis misericórdiam quam depóscunt, ut sciant omnes non esse, quam Unigéniti tui, nomen áliud invócandum. Qui tecum.
\nSuper oblata<\/strong>
\nLargitátis tuae múnera deferéntes, quaesumus, Dómine, ut sicut Christo usque ad mortem obodiénti salutíferum nomen dedísti, ita nobis eius virtúte muníri concéde. Per Christum.
\nAnt. ad communionem<\/strong> (Ps 8,2)
\nDómine, Dóminus noster, quam admirábile est nomen tuum in univérsa terra!
\nPost communionem<\/strong>
\nHóstia sumpta, Dómine, quam Christi nomen honorántes tuae obtúlimus maiestáti, grátiam tuam, quaesumus, nobis infúndat ubérrime, ut et nostra in caelis esse scripta nómina gaudeámus. Per Christum.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here are the Propers of the Mass for the Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus, for study purposes only, of course.<\/em>
\nEntrance Antiphon<\/strong>
\nAt the Name of Jesus every knee should bend
\nin heaven, on earth, and under the earth
\nand every tongue confess that the Lord Jesus Christ
\nis in the glory of God the Father (Phil 2:10-11).
\nThe Introit calls upon the whole universe to reverence and glorify the adorable name of Jesus — “in heaven, on earth, and under the earth” (Ph 2:10). At Mass and in the Divine Office, we reverence the Name of Jesus with a bow of the head. Not only does the outward gesture express what is inside; it also structures and shapes what is inside in a way consonant with the faith of the Church.<\/em>
\nCollect<\/strong>
\nO God, who in the incarnation of your Word
\nestablished the salvation of the human race,
\ngive to your peoples the mercy they earnestly implore,
\nthat all of them may know the Name of your only-begotten Son,
\nand call upon no other.
\nThrough our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
\nwho lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
\nGod forever and ever.
\nIn the Collect we confess that the salvation of all nations is in Jesus Christ and no other. We beseech the Father to give to all peoples the knowledge of the Holy Name of Jesus, so that everyone on earth may call upon that saving Name.<\/em>
\nGeneral Intercessions<\/strong>
\nThat, from the rising of the sun to its setting,
\nthe Church may proclaim the Most Holy Name of Jesus
\nwith reverence and awe,
\nto the Lord we pray: Christ, hear us. R. Christ, Graciously hear us.
\nThat Christians working in the service of states and nations
\nmay honour the Holy Name of Jesus
\nand, in the grace of that Name, seek peace and justice for the world
\nto the Lord we pray: Christ, hear us. R. Christ, Graciously hear us.
\nThat, following the teaching of Saint Bernard,
\nthose tossed on the seas of doubt may find security
\nin the Name of Jesus;
\nthe discouraged, new hope;
\nand the sick, a powerful remedy for soul and body,
\nto the Lord we pray: Christ, hear us. R. Christ, Graciously hear us.
\nThat we who reverence the Name of Jesus
\nmay offer fitting reparation
\nfor the blasphemies committed against that Most Holy Name
\nand, in the communion of the whole Church,
\nconfess that there is no other Name under heaven
\nwhereby we are saved,
\nto the Lord we pray: Christ, hear us. R. Christ, Graciously hear us.
\nCollect at the General Intercessions<\/strong>
\nO God, who in the holy Name of Jesus
\nhave given us a light in every darkness,
\nfood for every hunger,
\nand medicine for every affliction;
\nmercifully grant that we may find
\nno Name more agreeable in the singing,
\nmore welcome in the hearing,
\nand more comforting in thought
\nthan the Name of your only-begotten Son
\nJesus Christ who is Lord forever and ever.
\nA tender and burning love for the Name of Jesus found expression in the lyrical preaching of the twelfth century Cistercian Fathers. In the medieval Cistercian pharmacy of souls, the Holy Name of Jesus was the miracle medicine: the antidote for coldness of heart, bitterness, sadness, fear, lust, greed, vengeance, and every manner of spiritual ill.<\/em>
\nOffertory Antiphon<\/strong>
\nI will praise You, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,
\nand I will glorify Your Name forever;
\nfor You, O Lord, are sweet and mild:
\nand plenteous in mercy to all that call upon You, alleluia (Ps 85:12, 5).
\nPrayer Over the Oblations<\/strong>
\nAs we set forth, O Lord, the gifts received from your bounty,
\nwe pray that as you bestowed on Christ obedient unto death
\nthe Name that brings salvation,
\nyou would also, in the power of that Name, keep us safe.
\nThrough Christ our Lord.
\nThe Prayer Over the Oblations calls the Name of Jesus, “the Name that brings salvation.” The Name of Jesus brings healing, wholeness, health, peace and well-being. The Ambrosian Missal offers a magnificent Preface of the Holy Name.<\/em>
\nPreface<\/strong>
\n(Ambrosian Missal<\/em>, Votive Mass of the Holy Name of Jesus)
\nIt is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
\nalways, here and everywhere to give you thanks,
\nLord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God,
\nthrough Jesus Christ our Lord.
\nYou sent your only-begotten Son to us,
\nbearing the wondrous Name that tells of salvation,
\nso that he might set us free
\nfrom the tyranny of our ancient foe,
\nand by consecrating us as your adoptive sons,
\nmight call us to share the everlasting glory of your kingdom.
\nThis is the Name of our thanksgiving;
\nbefore this Name all knees must bend;
\nthis is the Name we invoke
\nas a refuge amid the perils of this life
\nand at the hour of death as our comfort and hope.
\nWe join with all creation to praise his Name
\nas with the choirs of heaven
\nwe sing the ageless hymn of your glory:
\nCommunion Antiphon<\/strong>
\nO Lord, our Lord,
\nhow wonderful is your Name
\nthrough all the earth (Ps 8:2).
\nThe Communion Antiphon echoes the Invitatory that opened Vigils. During Holy Communion the Church would have us sing: “O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is your Name through all the earth (Ps 8:2). To begin the daily round of praise, we sang: “The most admirable Name of Jesus, which is above every name: O come, let us adore.”<\/em>
\nOr:
\nAll the nations You have made shall come and adore before You, O Lord,
\nand they shall glorify Your Name:
\nfor You are great, and do wonderful things:
\nYou alone are God, alleluia (Ps 85: 9-10).
\nPostcommunion<\/strong>
\nHaving received the sacrificial gifts, O Lord,
\nwhich we offered to your majesty
\nin honor of the the Name of Christ,
\nwe pray you to pour forth your grace more lavishly upon us
\nthat we may rejoice in having our names written in heaven.
\nThrough Christ our Lord.
\nThe Postcommunion draws upon to Luke 10:20: “Rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” We cherish the Holy Name of Jesus during this life because we know that Jesus, the Divine Friend, our Perfect and Faithful Friend, cherishes our names, and calls each of us by name. When Saint Teresa of Avila in prayer said to Our Lord, “I am Teresa of Jesus,” He answered saying, “And I am Jesus of Teresa.” Today’s feast is, above all, an invitation and an opportunity to enter more deeply into the friendship of Jesus. He would have us call Him by His Name. Nothing so establishes intimacy between the soul and Jesus Christ as the ceaseless repetition of His adorable Name. Enter into the grace of today’s feast. Imitate the saints. Let the Name of Jesus be your warmth, your sweetness, and your song.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
