The Dawning of the Divine

Light of lights! All gloom dispelling,

Thou didst come to make thy dwelling

Here within our world of sight.

Lord, in pity and in power,

Thou didst in our darkest hour

Rend the clouds and show thy light.

Praise to thee in earth and heaven

Now and evermore be given,

Christ, who art our sun and shield.

Lord, for us thy life thou gavest,

Those who trust in thee thou savest,

All thy mercy stand revealed.

St Thomas Aquinas

The God of the Universe humbled Himself to develop in the womb of a lowly maiden. Amazing. Simply amazing.
