En Clara Vox Redarguit

AdventchildHark, a herald voice is calling;

“Christ is nigh,” it seems to say;

“Cast away the dreams of darkness,

O ye children of the day.” 

Lo, the Lamb, so long expected,

Comes with pardon down from heaven;

Let us haste with tears of sorrow,

One and all to be forgiven.

                     - Roman Breviary, Hymn En clara vox redarguit at Lauds

                                                

For Reflection:           

Advent is a time to watch, wait, and make preparation. How do I see all three of these reflected in the above hymn? How am I employing these in my life as I begin this Advent season?
