Could the love that seeks a child
Swaddled in the still of night
Come to set the Law aright
Rest upon my heart?
Could the gracious mother mild
Who said yes to God's great charge
Birth in me relinquishment
Holy trust impart?
Could the wisdom traveling far
Seeing signs that beckon men
Purge my every thought again
Let the Advent start!
