The Songs of Advent (Week 2)

Published: Dec. 5, 2021, 8:37 p.m.

On this second Sunday of Advent, enter John the Baptist, as we focus on a relatively new hymn that is sure to become an Advent favorite, "O Day of Peace That Dimly Shines." O day of peace that dimly shines through all our hopes and prayers and dreams, guide us to justice, truth, and love, delivered from our selfish schemes. May swords of hate fall from our hands, our hearts from envy find release, till by God's grace our warring world shall see Christ's promised reign of peace.
