DESCRIPTION:This service links the Advent season with Christmas itself. It
  is based on the great “O” Antiphons\, which are chants used before an
 d after the Magnificat at Vespers in the seven days leading up to Christma
 s Eve. The text of each of these chants begins with the word “O” follo
 wed by an attribute of the coming Messiah. Going backwards from the last o
 ne\, the first letters of the Latin names spell out the words ERO CRAS\, w
 hich is the Latin for “Tomorrow I will come”\, the Advent promise. The
  service builds on these seven aspects of Advent\, all leading to the well
 -known hymn that unites the Antiphons in one text: O come\, O come\, Emman
 uel.\n\nChoral Music:\nThe call of wisdom - Will Todd\,\nA tender shoot -
