Graduale Romanum (Solesmes translation)  Psalm 68 (67): 6+7+36
God is in his holy dwelling place;
the God who causes us to dwell together,
one at heart in his house;
he himself will give power and strength to his people.

The shepherds went in haste,
and found Mary and Joseph and the Infant lying in a manger.
