21st December: O Dayspring

Today as we sing O Oriens - O Dayspring, we remember as Christ the morning star, guiding us and bringing light to the darkness in our lives.  In Isaiah we read:
Isaiah 9:2 "The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who lived in a land of deep darkness—on them light has shined."

O Dayspring


Alleliua, Alleliua
Emmanuel
our king and lawgiver, 
come and save us,
Lord our God 
Alleliua
