"As morning breaks we sing of your mercy, Lord, and night will find us proclaiming your praise."

Mt. Angel Abbey
"Annuntiamus mane misericordiam tuam, Domine, et veritatem tuam per noctem."

We proclaim at dawn your mercy, O Lord, and your truth throughout the night.

     Antiphon 1 for Morning prayer, Second Saturday of Lent.
     Though misericordia and veritas appear very often together in the Vulgate, this antiphon appears to have been been newly composed for the post-Vatican II Liturgia horarum, as I have not been able to get it to appear in CANTUS.
