Advent Wash

In Advent, Satan’s knees will shake
When he’s reminded he has lost
As we prepare to our thirst slake
With Blood to wash away sin’s dross.

When we prepare for Son to come
We walk in steps of Three are Wise,
And wise ourselves we will become–
See world made new through Baby’s eyes.

He’ll with His Blood and Water wash
The darkness of the world with light
That streams first from a living crèche
To bring creation His new life.

Then all the world will rise with Him
Who will in Bethlehem be born:
Our Paradise made free of sin,
No longer are our hearts forlorn.
