“While We Are Waiting”

December 1, 2024
Anthem As the Dark Awaits the Dawn Carl Schalk text Susan Palo Cherwein As the dark awaits the dawn So we await your light O Star of promise, scatter night Loving bright, loving bright Till shades of fear are gone As the blue expectant hour Before the silv’ring skies We long to see your day arise Whole and wise, whole and wise O lucent Morning Star As the moon reflects the sun Until the night’s decrease May we your healing light release Living peace, living peace Unto your holy dawn Shine your future on this place Enlighten ev’ry guest That through us stream your holiness Bright and blest, bright and blest Come dawn, O Sun of grace
