This text is used at all times in the Roman rite except during Advent as the Communion motet of the Votive Mass of the Blessed Virgin.  A longer version of the same also forms the 7th Respond at Matins on Christmas Day.  The text below in '''bold''' is common to both Communion and Respond; that in normal font belongs only to the Respond, while the Alleluia is used for the Communion during Paschal Time.
